I have no idea why someone would leave 5k in one of these accounts.  That is ballsy and without a good password its mostly your fault.  Good luck.
I would not leave it there for long. I was selling some coins and found out later that I could only send $1000/24hour back home. In any case, Mt.Gox has responded now to my ticket and as soon as they have a bit of time they will look into this. There might even be some resouces left. I'm starting to get a bit of hope.

Yes, I installed that android app posted earlier. I did get a funny feeling about it and changed my password (in the browser, removed the app again).

Still I was not able to log into my account a few hours later. Got 1550 dollar and 170 bitcoins in that account. I'm working with Mt.Gox support now, to see what is going on exactly.
OS: Linux
Password Length: 8

No wonder Mt.Gox gets DDOSed all the time. I'm thinking about joining the attack. They still keep closing my tickets without reading them.

Thanks all for your replies. I was going to "cash out" most of my bitcoins. I thought, I'd just money transfer the whole thing away. But later found out that I can only do that at 1000 dollars a day. I've opened 7 calls with mtgox, but everyone of them gets closed automagicly, without any human looking at them. They have some other issue and assume every trouble-tickets is logged because of that.
I do hope someone here knows an other e-mail address or something so I can contact them more directly. Please PM me if you do.

How do I get in touch with Mt.Gox? They are closing all tickets I send to them without reading them. Automated. I'm really getting frustrated.  I've 5200 dollars in that account and noone is helping me.

Mt.Gox account hacked and they are simply closing my tickets.

Since this morning I'm no longer able to login to my mtgox.com account. Someone changed my password and reset my e-mail address. I've got quite a lot of bitcoins and money in that account and I'm trying to save as much as I can.

I filled a ticket with the Mt.Gox support desk, but they put my ticket on 'solved' saying that "an other trade is still in progress" is a known issue that they are working on it. Every other ticket I opened got put on 'solved' by some bot.

I don't know what to do next. How do I get these guys to listen? Every 24 hours an other 1000 dollars will be gone (if there are any resources left at all) and they simply ignore me.

What do I do?

Re: What exactly is the midstate? (trying to decode the json data in perl)

I found two issues with that perl code. You need the first 80 bytes, not 0x80. Second, calculate back to big-endian to get the same result as the miner:

Code:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use Digest::SHA qw/ sha256 /;

$raw =  pack 'H*', '00000001258124a1e0837367309ed9433af69c741513067793bf1f490000c0c800000000f2a45d9b1294bf78d27fe1d77558fbedf2b1eb37bb5f1808d7b77e33d809b8fb4d1c26d21b04864c01000000000000800000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000080020000';
$short = substr($raw, 0, 80); # first 80 byte

$short_le = pack "N*", unpack "V*", $short; # to Little Endian

print "short_le:", unpack("H*", $short_le), "\n";

$hash1 = sha256($short_le);
$hash = sha256(sha256($short_le));

$hash1_be = pack "N*", unpack("V*", $hash1); # BE again
$hash_be  = pack "N*", unpack("V*", $hash);
print "hash1:  ", unpack("H*", $hash1_be), "\n";
print "hash:   ", unpack("H*", $hash_be), "\n";
