There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.

could be a rival exchange, or someone lost a lot of money when it hit $30 and they're pissed.  or something else entirely

Could be rival motives, could be political motives. FUD-attacks to not let people gain too much trust in bitcoin.

Actually I honestly think a site such as MtGox needs to be moved to a bunker in the Ukraine or somewhere..similar to Pirate Bay..
