I just thought I would share what is a positive sign for those who have reported hidden text in the past. I have gone back to all the sites I have reported to Google and none of them have hidden text anymore! The results were not overnight but it seems to have worked!

I've seen that as well. It appears with a little forgiveness as well as they are back in the database.

I reported 6 sites with hidden links by filling the google spam report form in October-2002.

All the 6 sites have their PR intact as on today even though there are 150 to 200 hidden links each on index pages of all the sites that were reported. All you need is to press Ctrl+A on your keyboard to see the hidden links in full glory. Some of the sites now have PR8 against the PR6 when I reported the spam to google and are ranked # 2 or #3 for highly competitive keywords.

So now I have stopped wasting my time on reporting the spam.
