OK SO "IT'S THE END OF THE WORLD" naw... but close. The hackers have found away to F-CK up our computers and they are coming for us on April Fools day.
My friend April H. told me about this at dinner and I laughed hystercial as I thought she had lost her Yaki wearing weave mind. I've now had to apologize and she was right "the treat is real" !!!In an event that hits the computer world only once every few years, security experts are racing against time to mitigate the impact of a bit of malware which is set to wreak havoc on a hard-coded date. As is often the case, that date is April 1.
Malware creators love to target April Fool's Day with their wares, and the latest worm, called Conficker C, could be one of the most damaging attacks we've seen in years.
Malware creators love to target April Fool's Day with their wares, and the latest worm, called Conficker C, could be one of the most damaging attacks we've seen in years.Conficker first bubbled up in late 2008 and began making headlines in January as known infections topped 9 million computers. Conficker is clever in the way it hides its tracks because it uses an enormous number of URLs to communicate with HQ. The first version of Conficker used just 250 addresses each day -- which security researchers and ICANN simply bought and/or disabled -- but Conficker C will up the ante to 50,000 addresses a day when it goes active, a number which simply can't be tracked and disabled by hand.
Microsoft also offers a free online safety scan here, which should be able to detect all Conficker versions. READ THE STEPS TO PROTECT YOUR COMPUTER (CLICK NOW)
