Sourse Google maps v3 source map client separately from geocoder?
this is a curly one and we're not sure it's even possible...

We're wondering if there's any way to load the Google maps client separately from the Geocoder?

We have a Google Earth Enterprise Server which we use to serve up our imagery, and we have to add geo-coding to it. We tried sourcing the javascript client from the public Google servers and the imagery from our local servers. 

This worked but unearthed a bug in IE7 (which is our organisation's SOE (Standard Operating Environment) which we can't change) where it sends multiple requests for the [closedhand_8_8.cur][1] resource for no apparent reason, until our firewall drops the ACK packets, causing IE to block with it's two concurrent requests pending until they time out (we tried increasing the concurrent requests in the registry but it just blocks with 6 requests instead of 2 then). This makes the map freeze up and stop loading tiles for about a minute, which is unacceptable to our client. (God I hate IE...) 

If we source the Javascript client from our internal GEE server then the request doesn't go through the firewall, packets aren't dropped, and no delay is encountered (although IE7 is still requesting them all the same. we tested higher versions of IE, as well as Chrome and Firefox and this is the only browser that has this problem). 

We can't figure out why the firewall is dropping these packets as another business has control over it and we don't have scope to go packet-sniffing at every switch between us and the internet.

Our site is served over SSL, so we load all resources from SSL if that makes any difference.

So now we have a situation where we can either have a stable site in our SOE if we source the map client from our internal server, but no geocoding, or we get geocoding but a map that randomly locks up in our SOE. We'd like to have both, unfortunately we can't see anything in the Google maps doco that says how to load the geocoder separately from the map client.

Does anyone have any idea if such a thing is possible? or any other workaround that might get us to having stable maps and geocoding together? In the interim we're looking at detecting IE7 and loading the local maps for just that version (yes browser detection is bad but we can't see any way around it in this case), but then we still lose geocoding...

Help!!
