So if Google is seeing a link pointing to a dodgy porn site it will tell me, and I can try and resolve the issue before facing a penalty. Google wouldn’t even have to warn me that I may face a penalty, if I put the link there myself it is my own fault, and if I didn’t do it then I would know I have a security issue.

A Cool thing will be to notify webmasters if it(Google’s System) sees their sites are pointing to a Porn site(I mean basically Sites which are known to inject code or hack others’ sites) or something..

In My Case, The Cases I am dealing with, Someone gets the hold of our FTP Passwords, Downloads all (index|login|home).(php|html|htm|etc) files and injects a code..

These injected code are either an iFrame or a Script which includes one at run time or something…

In Both Case, They point to an outside Url… and they are the ones which in my case all happened to be porn sites… even with the words like f*** and all….

Got a mail from Google: they found out, there were malware scripts on my websites, not a particular page. And I will stress this : they offered help !
How nice, indeed.

Within 30 minutes I ‘ve found all the malware scripts, deleted and sent a message to Google. Receiving mail, deleting malware, sending mail to Google all on a friday at about 18:00 hrs my time.

Guess what : for 2 months banned by Google : all pages in de SERP’s holding the message : your pc can be dameged by visiting this website. Plus a warning from a ( by Google sponsored ) website in the usa, with a list read from browsers as FF.
They never sent help as they offered, they never sent an appologize, they never make mistakes, isn’t it?

Clearly the victim punished and no help.
After that, my opinion about Google is decreased from 200% to 20%.

I think, mr. Matt Cutts, you will not give any reaktion on this, as I can ever never get a mailaddress. And yes, I have sent a letter, indeed, no answer.
Disappointing.

I am still waiting for reconsideration request for my website after massive Chinese hacker attacks

The delay in answering the request is very high unfortunately and we are losing a lot of business

What would be great is that we get the answer of the reconsideration request inside the message center as reply to the original reconsideration request

Also view all files potentially affected by the malware (now we get access to just a sample of the pages)

Because if you don’t punish everyone it would be “evil”?

“Spread the wealth around” I think senator government, I mean Karl Marx would agree with that theory.

IF Google knows the page/site has been hacked, why do you punish the the victim and NOT the perpetrator?

Niall Kennedy, we’d definitely be interested in hearing from any other software makers. The main tests in my mind would be a) is it easy to tell the version number of the software from scanning the web page, and b) is there a list of known-vulnerable versions.
