Everything I have read indicates that in China, unlike most other countries, state security agencies have a significant amount of control over online activities, especially those routed to or from foreign addresses. In fact, I believe that internet use is licensed and regulated by their internal security department. If this is in any way true, it would be hard to imagine that they haven't noticed, and at least turned a blind eye to, the massive amount of spam and trojans orginating from PRC domains. Interesting. -- burns _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe/Suspend/Etc -> http://www.linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users
