Supposedly a new worm virus that takes control of you computer was released a while ago, and today (april 1st) a mega computer will take control of all the pcs infected with such worm. For what? Well it could be, to steal the bandwidth of all these infected computers, or maybe to manipulate them into flooding a specific website. Imagine thousands of pcs going to the same site at exactly the same time…that will result in the site shutting down. Or maybe recording all the keystrokes on your pc…that means they would have access to your major passwords, and credit card numbers.
No one actually knows if this is true or just a prank. But, its better to be safe, than sorry, so here are links from major Anti-Virus companies that will eliminate this virus threat called Conficker.
Before I mention the links, to prove whether or not your pc is infected, try going to the following sites, Symantec, McAfee, and AVG. If you can access these sites, then you’re not infected, because this worm virus blocks off access to such sites. If you can’t, then here are the links for FREE programs that will remove this threat.
