Upgraded to Firefox 6.0.2 - now Google Maps does not load

I just updated Firefox to 6.0.2 and now Google maps will not load - it opens, but gets stuck on 'loading maps'.

Google Maps is still opening just fine in Chrome and IE Explorer.

I tried disabling the Firefox Google Maps plug-in - this made no difference.

At Google Maps suggestion I changed the default for 'permission.default.image' from 1 to 0. This also made no difference (I have restored it to '1').

I have a near new Lenovo IdeaPad running Windows 7.

I have a solution:

Allow 'gstatic.com' in NoScript.
