A more refined search finds a solution... <w>

(Google web search for
"internet explorer" "google maps" crash
)

<quote>
After some Google Grouping it turned out that IE doesn't allow
changing HTML tables via DOM until they are fully rendered.
And since Google Maps code does just that the solution was
to move the <script> to the end of the HTML while leaving
the map <div> in the place where I wanted the map.

BTW I got (on IE7b) a different message before the crash:
<transcript>
The Google Maps API key used on this web site was registered
for a different web site. You can generate a new key for this
web site at http://www.google.com/apis/maps/
</transcript>


You mentioned "several websites". Are they all associated
with Google Maps?
