MtGox had plenty of problems before their php hot wallet was emptied like multiple civil suits, their US accounts being frozen with millions seized, and their Dwolla account was also seized full of funds.

And of course all that downtime for denial of service attacks which was their own fault. MagicalTux slammed BlackLotus, Prolexic and Cloudflare as garbage before somebody pointed out they left a bunch of open ports which is why they were still getting DDoS'd. That whole exchange is a joke from day 1.
