Can't Set Location for New Gamers Seeking Gamers Group

[Enforcer]

As the title says, I cannot set the location for my new gaming group. My Gamer profile has the correct location, and I'd like to use that same location for the new group, but whenever I click the link to set the location all I get is a text box that does nothing after I enter the address. No map appears. I've attached a screenshot to demonstrate the text box with lack of map.

I'm running the latest version of Mac OS X Snow Leopard, and have tried to set my location on the latest official releases of Chrome, Safari, and Firefox to no avail. Please help!

Bump. This still doesn't work. Any help, or at least a response, would be appreciated...

There's some reason Google Maps isn't showing for you on that page, but I've no idea why.

Do you get the map on the main GsG page?

I do get the map on the main GsG, including the correct location for me (the yellow star).

Also, I've upgraded to Lion since my initial post. Given the carry-over of the problem, I'm doubting it's OS related, but you never know.

Wow! I figured it out! I had been using the MVPS hosts file to filter out ad domains and bad sites A Troubleshooting and Security Guide for using the MVPS HOSTS file. After emptying my hosts file, I'm now able to see the map and set a location. My guess is that one of the Google adsense domains that the file blocks is necessary to view the map from within EN World, but someone more technical than me might want to check it out.

I think it's fair to say that if you block the map, you're not gonna be able to use it!

It's a little more complicated than that (I use Google Maps all the time; and the map on the main GSG page worked just fine), but yeah.
