Be prepared guys.

Lemme see...

Do I click in every ad that I see on internet? No
Do I check every porn like that I see? No
Do I open any unknown e-mail? No
Do I go to a site that I don't know? No

So, I don't really have to worry about it...

[cleone]

I do have to worry about it since I am always looking for certain programs(I used to go crazy looking for Mac emulators and I went in every site I found ). Hopefully I don't have it because it may infect the game(That's it, I'm I'm gonna move it to my flash drive just to be safe).

If you read the whole thing.. all you have to do is do i window update.. if you have received any update for the month of March, and are able to search for updates this time. then you do not have it

I can't get updates(I will not tell why).

[bb_42001]

ok.. i know why.... because you are Illegal..

ok try to see if your Anti-virus software gets any updates.. if it does then there is a high chance you do not have it

I had no say in having a legal version. I have NOD32 and it updates daily.

then you should be fine

That's a relief.

So in that case your infected

Conficker C imbeds itself deep in the computer where it is difficult to track. The program, for instance, stops Windows from conducting automatic updates that could prevent the malware from causing damage.

Microsoft gives it a low threat level.

Worm:Win32/Conficker.B is a worm that infects other computers across a network by exploiting a vulnerability in the Windows Server service (SVCHOST.EXE). If the vulnerability is successfully exploited, it could allow remote code execution when file sharing is enabled. It may also spread via removable drives and weak administrator passwords. It disables several important system services and security products.

Huh. Never read that Microsoft Report. Crap. It may be on my USB Flash Drive. And that was Conflicker B in that report. I am worried about the game now...

If you think that you're infected, in the day 31st of this month, at about 11:59 PM, save all the game related stuff and wait. If nothing happens at 00:00 AM, then everything's ok.

I know. Maybe if I just change my computer's clock, it may start up. I will try it now.

[cleone]

Nope. Don't have it.

April 1st. Nothing happened to my PC yet.

Same here! Yay!

[madness]

No one ever knew if it was going to do anything.
and there have been no major reports of it doing anything.

[bb_42001]

Actually it was on the Channel 10 news at 5.00pm here in Australia the night before april fools

and a morning news program called Sunrise on April fools.

Sunrise is like the Americans Today Show

[cleone]

Does anybody know what it was supposed to do?

[bb_42001]

according to the news.. they said it was meant to steal your passwords and stored information and log keystrokes and send them off somewhere

[Nikusakken]

And it also disabled Windows Update and other problems.

Take a look at this.
