Guys, you are not helpful... I asked this in the speculation sub-forum and it was moved here.
The newest info is that the problem is not limited to MtGox, but is an attack on the whole network.
Someone is spending time and money sustaining this attack, and probably hopes to get huge returns.
Market confidence may be broken badly if this is let to spread and persist. I'm a bear and want cheaper coins,
but not single digit ones. Now, is it possible to trace the source of this attack?

Mark K, who's been getting fatter, lazier, and less incompetent every minute.
At least he's getting less incompetent
in what he's doing. 
The only "scammer" who's been "scamming" bitcoins from Mt.Gox is the Mt.Gox insiders, esp Mark K, who's been getting fatter, lazier, and less incompetent every minute.
They only have themselves to blame. Mt.Gox is the FLAW in bitcoin ecosystem.

Sniff connections (54.248.236.161, 141.101.121.97 ) then plug 10GigE cable straight to the FPGA HFT Blackbox TCP-off load (no conversion to XAUI) at the same provider rack switch port ? and start "black voodoo" trading ...
Gox is almost entirely on fault here.
There are always people who are ready to commit Fraud. It's job of service providers to stop them.
On other hand halting all transfers are rather suspicious as problem is with manual or automatic retransmissions... Which shouldn't be too hard to disable and handle manually...

I have to ask this question, because nobody asked it yet. Someone (a group?) with technical abilities and some serious hardware
has been scamming MtGox of (many?) coins, resulting in them deciding to stop the BTC withdrawals until they (allegedly?) will fix the problem.
Now that the main target is not available, the scammer(s) may try the same on other major exchanges, like Bitstamp and BTC-E.
Right now I don't know if those exchanges are as vulnerable (or not at all) as MtGox to this exploit, and it would be good if they would clarify this.
Back to the OP, the scammer(s) did something illegal and while MtGox's management / technical staff should take a lot of blame, for not
fixing this without waiting for a general fix from the core developers, it seems no one cares about those who are at the root of the problem.
So I am asking again, who could be at the root of the problem (mutated transactions), please speculate and maybe a suspect will eventually emerge.

the other exchanges are sure since the problem is known for 3 years
