Thanks Tedster, we do have a WebmasterTools account setup. I had our security guy pour over the server and he confirmed its not hacked so we ruled that out. Hand checked all outbound links and all lead to good neighborhoods. SEO is very vanilla. Site has thousands of pr5-7 inbound links.

I found the plex in the logs and they reviewed 4 pages and came in via one bigtime serp we naturally have ranked well for and then poofta the site was gone from the index 1 hour later.

I have gone over the WebmasterTools info with nothing really sticking out except one cluster of 500 garbage links (5% of the total) pointing to our root from what looks like some kind of link ring or something. We do not advertise the site so it wasnt us that joined it.

Could someone get us a slew of junk links just to get us banned?
