    I kinda like these worm scares, its a good test to see who is a dipshit and doesn't run AV/A-MW or keep their computer up to date...


    The preventative steps are pathetically easy.

    I was thinking the media has not had a good Internet scare to report in quite a while, and here comes Conficker to save us from our financial crises boredom. A big 'yippee' for teenage Russian kids!

    I just installed Avira on the old Inspiron, and from what I can tell, it also comes in Mac form, so I guess the ol' Powermac'll get a dose as well. Never hurts to take precautions.


    Let's hope that Conficker isn't what I fear most: Ron Jeremy on Whoopi Goldberg & Kathy Bates threesome hardcore video. My retinas are detaching as I speak.
