Tripwire: With support for the Windows XP coming to an end, experts warn that computers which continue to use the outmoded operating system may be ripe for takeover by botnet operators, especially in China where XP is still widely used.
StatCounter reported in January that as many as 50.46% of the computers in China still use the XP operating system, due mostly to the high cost of upgrading. Support for XP ends April 8.
