I'm witnessing the same events as damacdonald.

I'm also running on a Mac with Little Snitch monitoring all I/O, and EPIC is obviously dumping to google, along with another trackback that I've not gotten to the bottom of yet.

JUst to make it clear, I'm only monitoring the activity from EPIC in the area shown above SystemUIServer.

Here's a quickie screen shot of little snitch:

Popups...
I tested out a few websites notorious for popups, and EPIC fails miserably, opening lots of new pages of spam.  Firefox 23 blocks everything.

I believe EPIC still needs a lot of work. Back to Firefox with donottrackme installed for now.

Good Luck.
