One of the bad things about being infected from a Chinese site is that a half-hour later, you're not sure if you got infected or not.

I almost got infected from a Chinese site once-- they tipped it off though when I was offered 'one exploit from column A, two from column B'.

I hear 'Malware Vectoring' is going to be a trial sport at next year's Summer Olympics.
