Good question, especially since he (and I) use FireFox instead. I don't
know what possessed him to download/install IE7, but that's what he did.
When this problem started, something made me ask about whether he had
recently installed IE7, and that was the case, so we knew that was a
factor in this problem - but it wasn't until he had the idea to try
making it the default browser that we noticed the effect it had.

Seems the story doesn't end there - he now informs me that map
retrievals are timing out where they weren't before.

Dave G., if you catch this - I see this test in your code to loop until
the map is ready, but it seems that it doesn't work?


Do While thisform.oMap.ReadyState<>4
 DoEvents

MS likes dependencies! That whole thing about not being able to separate
IE from the OS is a big one.
