Testing for the Conficker Worm

If you’ve been online much at all these days, you’ve probably heard all about the Conficker worm and it’s ability to totally mess up your computer system. We’re talking Windows pc’s here, as usual Mac computers are in the clear.

I’ve read in some places that it’s nothing to worry about, yet there are people in the forums I frequent that have been infected. The best protection is to make sure your anti-virus is updated and you’ve installed all of the Windows updates on your machine.

But if you’re still feeling a little paranoid, you can perform a Conficker infection test to make double sure. Takes less than a minute and I felt much better after.
