This is to inform that MLO site was attacked yesterday. Links to
malicious software have been integrated to all htm files. We have
discovered this incident in a few hours after the attack.

The site has been restored and it is working normally now.

Update on the situation: Google still reporting our site distributing

MLO site has been just removed from the black list.

This was quite stressful situation for me. For those who interested in
more details:
http://groups.google.com/group/stopbadware/browse_thread/thread/43e89b20ae4fc9a6#

The interesting thing I found is that Google itself might be
compromised also:

If you have your own site I wish you never been hacked and placed on
Google's black list. It is so hard to get out of there....
