Seems like DMOZ is dropped from ALL the results in Google ( around 200000 indexed pages ), that means no trace of DMOZ in Google results or even in cache.

info:www.dmoz.org - Google Search results 0
cache:http://www.dmoz.org/ - Google Search results 0

Is possible the removal to be also linked with the payed links scandal and also to the removal ( for specific keywords ) of some important directories like:

- AvivaDirectory.com
- AliveDirectory.com
- Haabaa.com
- DirectoryDump.com
- BigWebLinks.com
- LinksArena.com
- DirSpace.com

Article Submmitter is using for submission articles directories developed using Article Dashboard script. For 2 days these article directories are under attack and some of them are even hacked or down ( see the threads from article dashboard forum ).

We have release a temporary update for the database which contains only a small part of the directories, the ones not affected. Please use the build in functionality from Article Submitter and click on UPDATE to get the last version of the database ( containing only 215 article directories until the problem is solved).

update 05.11.2007:
We have started last week on the database cleanup, we have started from our list of 975 directories and we are almost 70% ready. Based on my estimation on 11.11.2007 we will have the new complete database up and running.

update 11.11.2007:
The new cleaned database is now launched. Article Submitter 2.0 has now a database of 712 directories ready to be used from the application.
