If you google the word mtgox, the sponsored result takes you to smarthome-egypt.com/mtgox and looks exactly like mtgox. I haven't investigated it further but it might be a phishing site. It also says login to our official site and displays the mtgox url under the search result.

Always double check which domain you are on after  clicking a web search result.

Reported to Google and mtGox - although the contact form for Gox had no 'security issue' as a submission-type so they might not check the mail for many hours.

lol...or ever
This is not some pseudoeconomic post-modern Libertarian cult, it's an un-led, crowd-sourced mega startup organized around mutual self-interest where problems, whether of the theoretical or purely practical variety, are treated as temporary and, ultimately, solvable.
Censorship of e-gold was easy. Censorship of Bitcoin will be… entertaining.
