Safari seems to have problems with displaying (and working with) an  
interactive maps provided by Microsoft Interactive Earth mapping.

The best example of this is to go to real estate mls site, www.mls.ca  
and look up somewhere like Waterloo / or zoom in on Waterloo. As one  
zooms in, at some point things go crazy and the map starts zooming in/ 
out.

If you want to jump into the problem try:  http://www.REALTOR.ca/ 
map.aspx?veCenter=48.2246726495652,% 
20-85.73730468750001&VeZoomLevel=5#acr:false;ac:false;baths:0-0;beds: 
0-0;fp:false;gar:false;pmin:0;pmax:0;rmin:0;rmax: 
0;openh:false;pool:false;stories: 
0-0;buildingstyle:;buildingtypeid:;viewtypeid:-1;waterfront:false;forsal 
e:true;forrent:false;mapZ:11;sortT:1;sortBy:1;page:1;mapC: 
43.46313876427882,%20-80.52069112658502;

Note:  The problem exists with other similar sites that use Microsoft  
Interactive to display where they are. However, since they set the  
zoom level to fairly high, they may sort of fail before even loading.

Anyways... anyone know a work around? Or more importantly a method of  
stopping the zoom in/out loop? Can one stop the plug in?
