PSA: Windows users, are you ready for Conficker come April 1st?

Asked by robmandu (21331points) March 26th, 2009

If you haven’t heard of the Conficker worm yet, take the time to read about it. Experts estimate it has infected millions of Windows PCs and that on April 1st, whatever entity is running it will put it into action.

Fortunately for you, the folks at Enigma have released a free Conficker removal tool.

If you want to read more about the low level details about exactly how Conficker does what it does, go check out this Rixstep article.
