Get error [80.983][SEVERE]: Unable to receive message from renderer

See http://goo.gl/ll2FvQ for common issues.

Issue Description:
In trying to execute a simple test I get the following error 
[80.983][SEVERE]: Unable to receive message from renderer. I am running from 
a maven build and using Junit. 

Steps to reproduce (if relevant, you MUST provide a simplified html page or
link to public site):
Here is the code that I am using to execute my test 
 @Before
  public void openBrowser() {
    //System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "/");
    //baseUrl = System.getProperty("webdriver.base.url");
      baseUrl = "http://www.google.com";
    driver = new ChromeDriver();
    driver.get(baseUrl);  -- this is the line it falls over at
    screenshotHelper = new ScreenshotHelper();
  }

-----Other helpful tips:
I am using selenium 2.44.0 and chromedriver 2.44 also
Attach your chromedriver log with verbose logging enabled (see
http://goo.gl/5Sx8mC for how to do this).

 My Junit test program has only a few line of codes

    @Test
    public void testGoogleSearch() {

        try {
            WebDriver wd = new ChromeDriver();
            wd.get("http://www.google.com");
            wd.quit();
        } catch (Exception e) {
            System.out.println(e.toString());
            fail();
        } 
    }
 in Window 7 with chromedriver 2.13 (should not make any different with 2.14)
 run smoothly and exit.
 Can you try it without maven build?
