Sci-Tech China Also Not Immune from Hackers' Attack

Some Chinese websites haven't also ruled out hackers' intrusion after their attacks on some famous world websites as Yahoo in the US. On February 14-15, they launched eight attacks on the main servers of 315China.com in Shanghai hotline newsroom. Many users who were chatting online at the time became victims of the attacks.

The hackers began their attack from accessing pages by pasting Javascripts into the webpages, which disturbed the displaying of IE in users' ports and made their computers collapse. They put out of function the web's service system and denied access to the website by destroying the server port with exhausted memory in the way as they did in their attacks on Yahoo. Server crashed down for a severance of lineage with the management system.
