Page 2 of 2 StopBadware concludes that "Web-based malware is a global
problem, and nowhere is the problem more pronounced than in China. This
analysis does not identify the reason for China’s disproportionate
share of infected sites. Additional research by StopBadware, however,
has postulated that part of the reason for this could be the lack of
economic incentives for Chinese hosting providers and site owners to
inform their users of infected sites and/or to take action to clean or
remove these sites."After StopBadware published a similar list last year, the owners of the most infected network block cooperated with StopBadware to clean and protect thousands of infected sites. Getting the same level of cooperation in China might, of course, be a rather different matter.
