We're disappointed this has taken so long. Given the web these days, getting serious about our security by hiring a professional firm to deep-clean the site, plus install a state-of-the-art firewall, is undoubtedly a good thing. That it has taken this long (we started the process nearly a week ago), not so much. Hard to know how much of the delay was SOP for this kind of job vs just plain old poor customer service, but we'll be keeping a close eye on things for a while to make sure this is indeed the long-term security partner we want to stay with.
I know it sounds trite and all, but again ... sincere thanks to you all for your patience, understanding and class through all of this.

The latest, btw, is that the request went in to Google yesterday for them to rescan the site and hopefully take us off the bad hombres list asap. Word is that can take "up to 72 hours," but we're hoping that's worst-case and it will be any time now.
We are hopefully in the last stages of resolving our post-hacking issues guys. It's just a matter of Google clearing us at this point - hopefully in the next 24 hours.

Your site appears to be hacked. Hacked sites can lose nearly 95% of your traffic in as little as 24 to 48 hours if not fixed immediately – losing your organic rankings and being blocked by Google, Bing and many other blacklists. Hacked sites can also expose your customers and readers private and financial information, and turn your site into a host for dangerous malware and illicit material, creating massive liability.
I don't think anyone needs to worry about their security in that we don't require credit card info or anything like that here.
