Alert: Conficker.C Worm


A new worm is set to trigger on April 1st of this year.  Win32/Conficker.C is a worm capable of blocking security related websites, terminating system security services and downloading component files using time-based generated URLs.

It does appear that this worm also uses a form of DLL injection, which will make it difficult to remove.    Matters are further complicated by the fact that the worm monitors and terminates many popular antivirus/process tools.

Make sure you have updated your antivirus and firewall software for this threat.  It has the potential to be a bad one!
