I get this error message every time I go into google maps. "An error has occurred while loading the application. Please reload the page". I reload the page but still get the same message. This only occurs when using Firefox, IE works. I am running XP and have had this problem for the last 2 days. I normally use google maps daily with Firefox. Please help

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

See Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems and Troubleshoot issues with plugins like Flash or Java to fix common Firefox problems
