China rejected on Sunday a German magazine report that computer hackers
believed to be linked to the Chinese army had infected German government
ministries with spying programs.

The Der Spiegel magazine, in a report ahead of a visit by German Chancellor
Angela Merkel to China, said that top German government ministries,
including Merkel's office, had been infected by the attack.
