I couldn't reproduce it but I don't think it means its hacked. Maptown most likely changed their url structure and Google hadn't updated its information.

A hack would indicate outside tampering which does not seem to be the case.

Do a scan on your computer as you may have some spyware installed or something. That url brings up Google for me and I have no problem searching

Google.com is alright here also. The problem is with google.co.in only. I have tried it across four or five machines in my office

It’s all right now. But for the past two hours maptown.com displaced google.co.in. I just couldn’t believe this cause there is no one else to support this.
