I don't know what the deal is. My sites were ranked fairly well, all had PR3's & 4's. I was working on linking to other good sites, and to generally increase my rankings. Now they are all PR0. Some of these sites have absolutely nothing to do with one another. I have no spam, no links to questionable sites, no weirdness at all. For some reason I've been handed the google web site death sentence and I have absolutely no reason as to why. The only thing I can think of is that they are all on the same commercial host. Would google PR0 all of my sites if they don't like my host?
Any ideas? Advice? Anything?
If when you are listed the listing has a date next to the URL in Google's search results then it behaves as a temporary listing, superseding the listing from the last update. When the temporary listing gets old (a day or two), you revert back to the update. If you weren't in the update, then you disappear.
I hope the best for you.

My cache right now is from 29 Aug.
I can see now that my cache has PR4, but still 0 on the real page.
Thanks for the explanation.
Zeus,
I've been in and out for about a week now. I've been out for the past two days. When my listing does come back it's generally listed well, and on all three servers (www,www2,www3). I'm hoping that this bodes well for the next update.
I think both of us will do well next month. We can can only sit back and go for the ride. No amount of lamenting or worrying will make one bot (I mean "bit") of difference.
Good luck!
BTW: Work on your other SE listings. My traffic has increased 30%, on other SE's, because I have given them more focus, knowing that Google traffic cannot be counted on this month.
I did the opti for AV because I saw people complain about Googles update, pages was lost and PR0 sites, so now Im happy I did get in on AV, because this time the PR0 hit me.
good luck for you
