it is not the script executing - They are running a cluster of front end servers and one of them has a different index page. The load balancer is using "round robin" aka passing each subsequent request to the next server in the cluster - so eventually if you keep reloading the page you end up on the one with the different index document.
I suspect their stuff is not that complicated at this moment - especially with just one page to be served... btw I noticed that FF executes the script almost immediately, but (fortunately?) IE is much slower... and of course the easiest way to capture the whole thing was to make a dummy link to the site, right-click (using IE!) and select Save Target. just copy-paste and save to something.htm file: <html><body>

Who wrote this?
That's a very good question. It's quite possible that it's fake. I've been bugging news outlets to insist that the guy who posted it post the actual file, not a link to scribd, so that forensic tools can be used on the source. It also might be something someone at Mt. Gox planted, to direct attention away from internal theft and discourage efforts to force what's left of Mt. Gox into bankruptcy now. it may be fake, but the latest development at gox (trading halted, site gone, twitter gone, the combined press release by other bitcoin actors, ..) makes me think its probably not. As for who wrote it; assuming its legit, it reads like something that a major shareholder or otherwise stake holder might write. Someone at the bitcoin foundation? Sure does explain the $100 price at gox though, someone with deep pockets knew. And that was always my fear, that the low price at gox wasnt caused by panic due to whats known publicly (made no sense) but by someone with big wallet and inside info. gox.com was domain was acquired yesterday by Mt.Gox. So who ever wrote this was privy to the actions of Mark Karpeles. I think Mark wants you to believe that Mt.Gox is being acquired.... unfortunately Gox.com is also Mark. |

But isn't it strange that gox.com is registered via GoDaddy while mtgox.com registered via '1 API GMBH'? http://www.whois.com/whois/gox.comhttp://www.whois.com/whois/mtgox.comSo is it actually registered by Mark, or has someone hijacked this domain? To me it's not logic to register a domainname elsewhere if you already have a domain+hosting. |

You are possibly reading too much into someone simply using a different company than last time to register a domain. http://gox.com today redirects to http://mtgox.com |

Can anyone else check MtGox Android app? Is it really displaying some bogus balance, like for me? (1.3 instead of the actual 8.5)
So no one else can check the Android app? |

Everybody can register/claim/buy a domain and redirect it to mtgox.com... Absolutely. It isn't any reassurance either way, as yet. |
