Those poor lemmings, I almost care.

Before coming to N4G, I used to get ALL of my news from PSU.com and before eventually leaving the site, I used to always have trouble using the site about 3 weeks before joining N4G. Sometimes whenever I would go to the site, the webpage would freeze and there were a bunch of other issues so I just decided to just leave PSU because there were just too many problems occuring.Then almost everytime I used to go to PSU.com, a Security message would pop up on my computer.

Anyways, N4G is the place to be to get all the latest breaking gaming news, period. I enjoyed PSU.com, but N4G is the place to be.

hahah i hope the the virus got the lot of them just like sweeping up dead cocroaches cleaning away the dirt.

;( the site was so slow, it took ages to load.

Isn't VGChartz in the same boat? I've personally had them try to install "anti-spyware" software onto my computer.

I've only been to PSU a handful of times, ran too slow for me to visit it regularly.

On an epic level. Was a stupid site anyways. Went there like...1nce ever ?

It's gud google sees they're a piece of sh1t

It'll get fixed. End of

LAWl ?

and I visit that place often.

Windows Vista blocks it anytime I try to go to that site. So I stopped trying.

Ouch. I know one site id recommend for PS news. Take a guess.

Hey guys, This is NoUseMerk/Justin Pinter, senior journalist at PSU.com

So...as you all know, Google has pretty much screwed us over.

A month ago PSU was hacked through the PS3forums, causing server slow downs, crashes, and the malicious software that Google has now reported us as.

We fixed the problem within a week of the hack, but Google must have scanned us during that time. As you saw, we were fine during E3...we fixed all the problems that occurred a while back...so this kind of hit us at really bad time.

We have contacted Google about it, and we hope to be back up within a couple days. We are sorry for the inconvenience and as you probably can tell, we are very upset over at PSU. Talk about the worst timing.

LOL YAY! A bad site which I'm not surprised hosted malware. Even if they deny it.

i know they are pissed PS3 has outsold them for months.. but to stoop this low again... man dirty tactics...

Great. This should let the 2 people in the world (including that merc guy) visiting it that it's not only a sh!t site with amateur children for writers but one with viruses!

Funny that this site should be attacked because I was just on that site last night.

I don't understand why everybody thinks they are automatically at fault. That's like blaming limewire because you downloaded a virus instead of a song.

From google's page.

I'm guessing most people just read the title and left it at that without even looking for more info.

Ive downloaded plenty of themes and backgrounds for my Ps3 and never had any issues.

No I'm not some PSU flamer that wants to destroy anything that is Playstation Universe.

I'm a person that has always enjoyed psu.com. I have two themes on psu that are in the top downloaded.(playb3yond, and Vista). The reason for this post was one for informing PSU and potential website users of the problem, so that there can be resolution to the problem - not to mention prevention. This news post was for the overall good of psu. I want to help (are you listening Jpinter a.k.a. NoUseMerk/Justin Pinter?)

As many may know, sending an email just doesn't get things done. Emails sometimes get ignored or just put on the back burner. Sometimes things need some attention to get things going.

Google, can we get this resolved in a timely fashon so we can get back to enjoying psu? I don't and am sure others don't want to be taken to a warning page saying there is a security issue on their favorite destination site. Clearly GOOGLE requires some fixing on their side.

PSU is a fine site, it was just some gay xbots that thought it would be funny to hack it and upload some dodgy Sh*t cause they got nothing better to do, sad really.
