Bill, Sorry to be late on this thread. I've been keeping track on it though and I'll give the "loop" and associated running problems a look this evening to see if I can sort anything out.

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?

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