Conficker: Virus Rather than put this into Technology, thought i'd stick it in here as the 1st of aprils not far away. Seemingly theres a super virus on the way, already hidden intisde windows systems and will be activated on april 1st utter balls IMO. Microsoft said they have a patch, but cant be arsed rakin about on there cluttered website for it, it's not main page so cant be that important. Heres the website anyway, was all over the sun & the news. http://www.cbc.ca/technology/story/2009/03/27/conficker.html
so a super virus is going to strike on April fool's day, i can see why the Sun ran a story on this tbf, its right up there street
True, but theres ment to be a patch, they say the virus comes in 3 parts, both 1st & 2nd parts of the virus were sent out in october then december 2008. Now this killer 3rd part on april fools day, if i was a pro hacker, i'd pick april fools day, coz no fucker believes anything will come of it = fucked pcs. So am gonna look for this patch just incase. Or it could all be a big joke, well they say it might be a joke, it's probly got something to do with, get as many idiots as poss to go out n buy norton
fucking hell Rory, you're a bit behind the times on this one. The computer press have been fretting about Conficker/Downadup since November of last year. And it's not set to "activate" on April 1st, It's set to download some sort of new update. Check: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2009/03/26/conficker_activation_analysis/
