On November 12, a notice titled "Urgent Notice Regarding the Cautious Use of Rising 2008 Firewall Software" was posted on Jilin University's BBS. The notice pointed out that "after repeated verification by technical personnel, it has been confirmed that the 'Rising 2008 Firewall Software' has serious design issues," and further stated that "the interference and damage this software causes to networks is even greater than many computer viruses." Once this announcement was made, it caused a stir across the internet. Rising has cultivated its presence in the antivirus domain for many years, consistently being a leader among domestic antivirus software companies, collectively holding over 70% of the domestic antivirus market share with Kingsoft and Jiangmin. Could it be true that such a company, with its deep technical background, has indeed encountered such a significant "software design issue"? According to the latest survey data from iResearch, the installation volume of Rising Antivirus Software is close to 40 million. If this were true, there's no doubt that it would be a disaster for China's Internet.
