A report from a popular security software firm McAfee has said that the Chinese has used the flaws in Microsoft Explorer to hack the Google’s email accounts of China’s Human Rights activists.
It is to be noted that Google has earlier announced that it will review its stance whether to continue or quit its services in China.
Mcaffe has said that the hackers fooled the users by clicking on a link which will be directed to a website. And this website will allow the hackers to take the remote access of the infected computer.
And Microsoft has already mentioned that its browser could be used by the hackers. It also said that it will take account of all the attacks before developing an update.
On the other hand Google has announced that it is "no longer willing to continue censoring our results on Google.cn.''
It is to be noted that 30 percent of the Chinese users use Google as the web search tool.
