Identified
Malicious traffic is causing actions in the admin area of Movable Type 3 (MT3) blogs to be slow or fail to complete, which means you may not be able to edit or publish a post at this time. The front of your site remains accessible to readers. We are working to mitigate the traffic and will update with an estimated resolution time.
