Steamy Chinese film "Lust, Caution" has not only been a smash-hit at the box office but has also been spreading online viruses, state media reported.

At least hundreds of websites, online forums and blogs are themed "Lust, Caution" and about 15 per cent of them have been attacked by hackers and carry virus, official Xinhua news agency said.

Netizens who download the film are very likely see their computers hit by virus, it said.

Internet security experts say hackers spread online virus either by attacking some medium and small film download websites and putting virus into them or by using certain software to tie the film with virus.
