Conficker worm gets an evil twin

The criminals behind the widespread Conficker worm have released a new version of the malware that could signal a major shift in the way the worm operates.

And this and others will continue to spread due to the biggest failure in security - the average pc user.

I haven't been infected yet with this bugger, and I sincerely hope that I don't end up being infected. It really sounds like a nasty one, compared to some of the more recent pieces of Malware.

Well I have had my first run in with this f$%4$#@%@#$%@#$% pice of s#$^@#$^@#^!!!

It has infected 2 pc's on a remote site where AV replication takes a while. Our main problem was it locking out user accounts! So after a few attempts of user accounts, it would be locked and moved onto a new account.

We have isolated it and removed it from 2 pc's, but it has happened twice in the last week!

...it infected about 3 pc's in my area. lets hope our AV is updated
*crosses fingers*

Apparently per their site http://blog.opendns.com/ using OpenDns addresses will prevent conflicker from calling home and working
