It is said to already have a thousand computers aligned to attack.

They're freaking out because they're stupid. If you have windows and you have the most updated things, you'll be fine, unless you have it already. But the free scan offered by windows can detect the worm and delete it. No problem, you're done, you're safe.

Just stay away from the internet for a little while if your that scared. But just make sure your all updated and protected or use a mac:P Pretty sure Confiker is only on Windows if I'm not mistaken.

dont worry theres no such thing as a virus that cant be removed sometimes it requires a reinstall though. confiker is most likely going to be used for DoS attacks (denial of service) which is when a bot net floods a certain server/netowrk to bring it down. but ya if ur worried bout it just run linux thats the simplest answer lol.

Okay well it's set to update April 1st and be sent out, taking over 50k websites per day and infecting your comps x-x
Once your computer is infected, the master computer that it originated from or w/e has complete control over it... crazy shit.

Yes, let's freak out the stupid people. How about mentioning how easy it is to NOT get infected?
Download the latest system updates and do that free virus scan microsoft is offering that will detect the virus and then delete it.

From what I saw on 60 minutes, 10 million computers are infected with confiker but all i does is wait for and receive further instructions. Also i heard it was set to receive instructions on April first (possibly April fools day attack )

Basically this Worm virus is said to force your computers to reveal all bank details on the computer, and it has been sent worldwide. MICROSOFT ARE OFFERING A $250,000 REWARD TO WHOEVER FINDS THE CREATOR!

Everyone knows what it can do! It will disable your automatic updates, disable windows defender, AV if it has enough time and the creator can control your computer.
