 * chrissywhipple: You can only undo the import if you have a database backup. I
   doubt that you could lose any posts by doing an import, though. The plugin does
   not modify the database directly and uses the WordPress API for inserting data.
 * Why do you think the database has been corrupted? What version of WordPress are
   you running? Could you provide me with a sample of the CSV file you were trying
   to import?
