Astaro blocking Google Map Search all of a sudden?

Hey all,
Running 8.102 version ASG at home, and a week or two ago, ASG suddenly started blocking out Google Map Search view on my Google Home page (the widget you can add to your iGoogle page.  

I am running HTTP/S in Transparent Mode currently, and everything else is working as it should (or so appears thus far).  I have made no changes to any settings to warrant this, other than adding sites to be blocked that try to install that anti-virus malware garbage.  None of those sites are a part of Google, and I can ping the map search DNS name from the Astaro box using the Ping Tool, and I can trace route the DNS name and IP just fine.  if I turn off Transparent mode to Standard, the widget will re-appear, showing the map and traffic.  I can change it back to Transparent and the map search widget will stay visible for quite some time, but the next day, it's blocked again.

Anyone else running into this?

This is what I am seeing in the HTTP/S lie log when accessing iGoogle:

  • OK, so I managed to look at the source code for that particular frame.  At first glance, you see nothing but some HTML code, but then inside the code is a URL link to the specific map item.

    When you click on that link, it stays in notepad and returns you to the source code for that specific item inside the frame.  Astaro has it blacklisted, but nothing appears under that frame from Astaro telling me that  [:)]  I've bolded where it is showing in the source code, a blacklist.  The 'something is wrong' flag in my brain though is still flying high because I don't have it on a blacklist:
