some usb drives that have been used on a infected computer could transfer the worm by allowing the option Open folder to view files on auto run,even tho this is not supposed to be an option. it looks for PCs that are not running up to date protection if you have your firewall and windows update up todate your most likely safe

Nah, this is not a hoax. People have already been infected. A newsroom wing of CBS was infected like last week and it took them around 5 days toget it back in order.

Went to www.microsoft.com and it loaded!!!! Yes mothagdfgrojuf!!!!!Originally Posted by Julian Wright
If you want to check if your computer's been infected already, go to sites like www.microsoft.com or www.f-secure.com
The conficker virus blocks your computer from going there so if you're able to load the site, you don't have it... yet
Also turning off your computer won't help. But I'm still doing it anyways
Some conficker removal tools:
Microsoft Malicious Software Removal Tool:

F-Secure removal utility
ftp://193.110.109.53/anti-virus/tools/beta/f-downadup.zip
McAfee's removal tool
http://67.97.80.71/vil/co...ger/Stinger_Coficker.exe
This $@!! is not touching me
I'm turning the whole thing off tomorrow and probably for a week. Heck even my tv...you never know
