Sorry for being remarkably helpful and on top of things.
I do think I worked it out--the test website code at www.buffistas.net was infected. Same things as got me. So based on that, they threw the bathwater out without even checking to see what was in the tup. Even thought subdomains have no inherent codebase sharing, I guess I can see what they're aiming to do -- they're a massive company and responding to every websmaster's plea (despite our massive number of employers wasting company time here (don't disabuse me of the notiion that you Ooglers don't have a 15 minute forum break where mundanes would be chatting over coffees or playing foozeball, and also there are tablet computers installed in Seque handlebars, and you zip around your massive buildings reading fic to your heartly (if that's where your fic is targeted) delight.
But on the flip side (not of the leaking money like a sieve scenario), if they can stop people from going to sites (I don't remember if it was search or Chrome browser that left me without a simple method to get where I was trying to go without switching browsers. ANd my remember level of frustration must mean it was search, since I find switching search engines more @@+::sigh:: (aka teeneagered end of the world) than changing browsers for one answer.
