With April 1st come and gone, many people are wondering “How do I know if I have the Conficker worm?” How do you know if you have the Conficker virus? (Also known asDownadup.)

Here’s how to tell if you have the Conficker virus. With the Conficker Eyechart. Now the answer to how to know if you have the Conficker worm is just a link-click away!

A consortium of security companies, including F-Secure, Trend Micro and Secure WORKS, and many more, have banded together to create a simple eye-chart style test which will determine whether your computer is infected with the Conficker worm!

Here’s how it works: a ‘chart’ of six images is displayed on the page. The clever folks at these companies have rigged the chart so that some of the images will not display if you have one version of the Conficker worm, other images will not display with another version of Conficker, and if your computer is not infected, you’ll see all six images. Nifty, huh?

Test your computer to tell if you have Conficker.Evilfantasy posted this earlier on my conflicker post. Really helpful link. Oh, I didn't see it
That's no problem, sure many haven't seen it so it's good to have it in multiple places. very interesting. Apparently I do not have the conficker virus. I kind of thought so because nothing was happening and the scans always came out clean.what's going on? I was at school using the computer lab where the sociology DEPARTMENT 's office is located and outside it said that many computers including school computers are or have been conficker worm infected?

What is this conficker worm about? What does it do in terms of hijacking a computer?It's basically a fear of the unknown.

it's your average one of the mill worm, but NOBODY knows what it does. People have a fear of the unknown.

And, as with Y2k, there was a rather anti-climactic ending.My eyes SEEM fine.Quote from: BC_Programmer on April 04, 2009, 09:42:41 AM

Average...security companies were genuinely worried...I think something else will happen that no one knows about...Just when we let our guard down...BAM!Quote from: Helpmeh on April 07, 2009, 05:55:20 PM

perhaps.

And it's really only the more computer-inept that are susceptible; I know I realize fairly quickly when I've had my *censored* handed to me by a infection. usually a quick task manager to see a bunch of FRIENDLY DOFJDOIF.EXE and rundll32's and stuff to know I'm going to be busy for an hour.

That happened yesterday, actually. Those things can be nasty.
