There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, which will follow the rules of the network no matter what miners do. Even if every miner decided to create 1000 bitcoins per block, full nodes would stick to the rules and reject those blocks.
Advertised sites are not endorsed by the Bitcoin Forum. They may be unsafe, untrustworthy, or illegal in your jurisdiction.

mtgox.com does work for me, and then i get the green security bar aswell. So www.mtgox.com probally directs you to a phishing website.

I didn't click on a link. I typed www mtgox com in my search bar like I usually do and I got this warning. Have I been hacked or is it from mtgox end?

So confused.  Sad

No, the certificate was signed only for mtgox.com (and not www.mtgox.com), that's why you get that warning.

typing mtgox .com doesn't work either. First time I've seen the correct website name might lead to a phishing site.

Mtgox site is now working. Does anybody have any idea what might have happened? It seems only a few people encountered this problem.
