I don't see anything happening on mouseover in firefox 3.0.9.

It looks like you have run afoul of pitfall #3 on this page of Mike
Williams' tutorial:
Part 1 Markers with info windows
http://econym.org.uk/gmap/basic1.htm

Your marker2 retains the contents of the last marker processed. You
either need a createMarker function to hold function closure on the
marker variables or you need to use some other way to associate the
infoWindow contents with the marker.
