Windows Live Local (map) and Firefox users in here, please

For me and somebody else, http://local.live.com/ + Firefox =

Using the lastest version of Firefox, cleared temporary internet files and cookes, and still doesn't work.

Funnily enough, Internet Explorer 6 loads it up first time. :rolleyes:

Any ideas, workarounds or soloutions?

Works fine here, v1.5.0.7

Doh! I swore I was in the Windows forum! :mad:

I know it probably doesn't help your situation much, but it works fine in Firefox 1.0.7 here so it's not a case of it not being compatible.

Disabled Adblock Plus, and all is well.

Phew!

I'm finding the "launch" of live.com has made Windows Live Local a right pain in the rear for me (a Firefox user).

Just now I spent about ten minutes trying to navigate to the map view which used to be located at http://local.live.com. Now that URL just takes me to a page with a header, two form inputs ("What" and Where") and copyright information in Firefox. All I wanted to do is look up an address, but this search form refuses to accept such information and throws up no results no matter what I search for. I managed to get to the map view eventually, but not without a lot of pain and suffering.

Funnily enough navigating to the same URL in Internet Explorer takes you straight to the map view... :mad:

Is Adblock enabled? If so, disable it for that page?
