I have low hopes for retrieving my 0.00770912 BTC that were in there (I really don't know why I even had that much in there, but upon logging on... it seems I may have).

But at the same time, I didn't see this page coming. I wonder why its there? What would one do with this knowledge except feel uncomfortable?

Be careful. It's entirely possible Mt Gox has been hacked -- it wouldn't be the first time.

EDIT: No 2FA, no https, and all data shown has already been stolen by hackers. I'm assuming it's probably real, but still -- be careful.

If they don't have a zero day browser exploit, is there any reason I need to be worried? (Assuming I use different passwords for everything)

I have an interesting question. Currently my AUD$ balance is displaying as $0. However in December and Febrary I had asked to withdraw $1,000 and ~$400 to my Australian bank account. Those transfers were taken from my balance, but merely sat as 'confirmed' rather than 'processed'. What happened to my money?

I don't know how their infrastructure works, but if they use your password to unlock your wallet this could be a phishing attack. Either way, the money is probably as good as gone anyway.
