China Tells

Online Gaming in China is one of the biggest in the world, mainly thanks to the record number of Chinese people who use internet. According to a latest estimate, there are more than 300 million People in China who use Internet and the online gaming is a market with a total revenue of $2.7 Billion (See ARticle from China Daily). Such a big market attracts not only online game providers, but also hackers. Using a trojan horse program, a hacker can control the hacked computer from a remote server and log into the computer users’ online gaming account. With the hacke account the hacker can profit from selling the possession in the victim’s virtual account and also turn it over to other potential buyers. At the same time, such a situation also provides great market potential for Anti-virus programs and software providers. China’s Internet is like a giant jungle full of opportunities but only the fittest survive.

网上游戏在中国特别受欢迎。据估计中国的网民已经突破了3亿。这是什么概念？差不多是美国和加拿大的人口总数。在这样一个巨大的市场中，自然少不了黑客的参与。目前盛行的特洛伊木马程序可以被植入计算机并且供黑客窃取网游资料，然后在互联网上贩卖。当然这也给反病毒软件提供了广大市场，真是道高一尺魔高一丈，螳螂捕蝉黄雀在后阿。
