sorry if this is the wrong group for such a posting, but I cannot find
a good answer at any of the other places I have visited in the
neighborhood.

issue is that a site we set up on a third party hosting service was
altered by evil-doers, wound up on the advisory blacklist, we fixed it
-- very nice.

but now we are trying to do some forensics and i need to find out the
time google's malware detection bot visited the site BEFORE it found
malware. I'd appreciate any guidance or suggestions on this.

thanks again...

Here's a hammer and tongs solution which may be of use.

If your site was listed pretty recently, why not try to download diffs
for 20 versions older than the current one and try to see if the MD5
hash for your site was in there. That way you can get a rough idea of
how far
back Google first got to know that your site had malware.

Does this seem reasonable to you?
