That's interesting. :-)

I can assure you that equake, as uploaded by me, does not direct the 
user to any other sites than the USGS earthquake sites and maps.google.com.

One problem that I am aware of is that the new google maps does not 
always work as expected with the url equake generates and I need to find 
a fix for that.

Perhaps in your case there is something bad going on with the browser, 
or your dns requests are returning something different than expected. Or 
there are some oddball ads that mess things up, try an adblocker.

Greetings,
