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."
Certainly one would have to agree with them that
as far as the US and Europe are concerned, cooperation and data sharing
have proven to be effective strategies in addressing the issue.
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.
