Re: Google Cannot Access The Site Correctly Any More
-----------------------------------
These are the IPs that were in my banlist:

77.41.104.29  
74.6.20.40    
82.99.30.34   
82.99.30.46   
82.99.30.68   
82.99.30.11   
82.99.30.57   
38.99.13.125  
58.65.239.18  
222.237.78.50 
61.234.105.61 
82.115.76.37  
85.179.153.249

This is quite odd. I agree with you that it makes little sense for an hacker to ban only Google BOT, but on the other hand I know for sure that I didn't ban those IPs.
I checked on Whois and none of those IPs resulted to belong clearly to Google, and this is why I am now waiting impatiently that Google respiders the site to see if this was the problem. 
But, as I already said, the error that Google gets is "Critical Information", without any other information. This error, if I understand correctly, comes out only to those users or IPs that have been added to the banlist.
Or there might be some other reason?
