McAfee mapped the most dangerous places on the internet.
Some of the statistics:
A consumer is almost 12 times more likely to encounter a
drive-by-download while surfing Russian domains as Columbian ones.
Registering at a Web site in India results in a 4.3%
chance of getting spammy e-mail. Taking the same action with a domain
registered in China yields a 7.2% chance.
5.2% of Vietnamese Web sites have risky downloads. Just
0.5% of Singaporean sites host such files.
2.7 million times every month, casual Web surfers visit
risky Dutch Web sites. Even though Hong Kong has approximately the same
percentage of risky Web sites, those risky domains receive just 52,000
clicks each month.
