Hackers from Communist China is trying to invade personal computers teasing users with a false announcement about a "very special and fantastic new software for Biblical studies". We just documented one of these hackers attack.

 Hackers from Communist China invaded hundreds of personal desktops this last weekend in order to erase entire Hard Drives. These criminals intensified his attacks after the liberation of the 24 Americans, crew of an airplane captured in Communist China.

These dirty Chinese hackers try to invade personal computers teasing the users with a nice invitation to visit a website where exist a announcement about a "new and fantastic software for Biblical studies". When the user access this website his browser settings for Internet options is immediately captured and the Chinese address is entered like your default home, as you can see in the photo below:

Then, these criminals offers an option for install a pack with Chinese language letters and fonts. If the user agree to this option is immediately damned. In first, all of your RAM is sucked by a destructive soft. The primary goal of this tool is erase your HDD destroying all data you have. In this case, say good bye to your PC, man!! In the photo below you can see this phase of the attack:

We was under one of these attacks at the last Sunday, June 10, 2001, but our Robot detected the trap, refused the invaders and nuked his server, a Linux machine located in Beijing. Our Robot discovered that the web address entered by the hackers in our MS Internet Explorer 5.5 (Tools, Internet Options, Home Page) was false, compared it with the original web address displayed, encountered the server originator of this trap and destroyed it erasing his entire HDD using a tool developed by American hackers, called HDFuck 6.0.

Communist Chinese are very furious because denounces about torture of bears in commercials farms. Some websites with these denounces has been deleted this weekend by Yahoo in the farmer Geocities. All of these websites was in entire accordance to the Yahoo TOS (Terms Of Services). The deletion occurred because some big enterprises with high commercial interests in the Chinese market doesn't want websites showing denounces about the Chinese crimes against human rights and animal rights.
