Hi Chris -

We're having a strange problem with the v3.4 release.  When I try to
open any page that uses the Streetview portion of the API it seems to
hang Chrome on some Windows PCs (but is OK with other browsers).  For
example the sample map at:
http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/examples/streetview-simple.html
causes problems (it just doesn't load at all, we just see a blank
page).

The reason I think it might be due to v3.4 is that when I grab the
page and explicitly set it back to v3.1 it works fine (v3.2 and 3.3
also have issues).

What's baffling is that on some PCs it's OK but others with seemly the
same setup have issues.  I've tested using Win7, XP and Vista with the
latest version of Chrome and there doesn't seem to be any consistency
-- some machines/browsers are OK, some not.  The only common thing is
that when we go back to v3.1 it's OK.

Also, we've only seen this with Chrome on a PC, other browsers are OK
and we haven't seen any issues Chrome on a Mac.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

- Abel
