For what it is worth, QQ is called by some as "a giant trojan horse" as
reported in http://www.theregister.co.uk/2013/03/14/china_enemy_internet_blue_coat_skype/

So just to be on the safe side, if ever using one of such products, I would safely
sandbox it in a way that it has no access to anything on my computer, and use it 
only for things that are public anyway or I have no concerns if they would become public.

Just saying,

Ralph
