My guess is Google have noticed people abusing the geocoder and have started to actively block certain requests.
calls that use callback and dont originate from the Maps API itself are a prime candidate for blocking (because using callback yourself means you working outside of the API) And requests from behind a proxy are subject to extra scrutiny, so a few legitimate requests are getting caught in the crossfire? 2009/11/4 AndyWins <[email protected]>: > I am also having the exact same problem.
