Hi Rubén,

I'll add some more info to clearly your understanding, with underline __.

   - Mozilla Online offers a custom China Firefox version.  __and only
   provide this version to user on our China website.__
   - This version includes a default __extension__ to provide quick dial
   __function. (it's a different front page to normal Firefox.)__
   - __If user added a link on quick dial to a online market (www.jd.com)
   and click that short-cut, it will be automatically redirected through a
   affiliate website.__
   - The code __which do the redirect__ included a joke message "do some
   evil here".
   - Tech press was alarmed because of this and some recent problems in
   China about adware moving traffic to pages with affiliates codes.
