The second annual McAfee “Mapping the Mal Web” report into the riskiest and safest places on the Web reveals that 19.2% of all Web sites ending in the “.hk” domain pose a security threat1 to Web users.

Basing that on TLD seems flawed to me and when I see this;

The domain risk assessments come from the McAfee SiteAdvisor site rating database.
