Has Only Maybe been hacked?
I get to Only Maybe OK on a Mac, but on a couple of XP PCs I keep getting redirected to a (Turkish?) site.
No idea if my computers have been compromised, or if this is something on the Blogger site.
Very odd.
Not something I want to completely figure out now, so just a little feedback from others might help a little with identifying the problem.
It does sound as though Google has seen some of this before...but can't find a complete verification process.
Maybe something like whoever or whatever hacked the Illuminatus Wiki (?)
Gonna go walk the dog.

I wouldn't panic as of yet. I started the URL and stopped immediately, and looked at the source. Everything seems perfect. I don't see a redirect in the header anyway, so I guess it's an attack on Blogger.
It first redirects to a fake domain before redirecting to the final crap.
I can still log in with my password through the Blogger dashboard. But indeed every single post is redirected.
Bogus, you might consider exporting the blog to your hard disk. It results in an xml file with the content. If Google doesn't offer a solution, you can import this file into a new blog with a new name. I just did a test with my own blog and it works fine. Of course all the extras and the lay-out are gone as sadly you cannot export a template. There might be a way to hack into the particular CSS though (about three external files and a large part in the page itself) and d/l it as well but I don't think it's easy to put it back on.
I posted a question on the Google blogger help forum, so maybe together with your question on SecuObs and badwarebusters we'll get an answer.
On Julie's Mac she is using Firefox for Mac, and it works fine!
I can copy out the template (sent you a copy, but nothing odd in it).
I'll maybe export the site, as you suggested - just for backup - it doesn't take the graphics with it, I don't think (?)
And then wait.
This genius called Kaleh posted an explanation on the BadWareBusters site about how a Java insert contained the rogue code, so I took it out of the template Header and it works again.
Aum!
Big ups to Kaleh!
I've tried getting onto the website from two different computers and both of them wont let me on the website. Whenever I go to Only Maybe it'll redirect me to another website that Firefox has flagged as an 'attack site'.
