PT Chinese hackers occupy official US Web site Hackers posted a picture of Wang Wei, the Chinese pilot who was killed in a collision with a U.S. Navy spy plane April 1 on the Web site of the Department of Labor and Health. The Web site of the Department of Labor and Health was taken over on Saturday, just two days after the F.B.I. warned that Chinese hackers might step up attacks on Web sites in the United States.
Federal officials believe the pages have been vandalized by hackers from China.
Technicians had the site fixed within a couple of hours, an agency spokesman said. The FBI and the Federal Computer Incident Response Center are investigating Saturday's attacks, the spokesman added. The hackers were believed to be Chinese because of the content, including Chinese characters. The Chinese invasion is seen as a reaction to what it is called a Web site battle between China and the U.S. since the spy plane collision. In the last two weeks U.S. hackers have vandalized scores of Chinese Web sites.
