Information on this worm/virus was featured on CBS's '60 Minuets' program Sunday night. It's real and it's a threat to Windows based PCs. Here's a link to the Snopes report.
"The Conficker worm's purpose is to creat a "botnet" of infected computers that can be controlled by Conflicker's creators, allowing them to engage in such activites as stealing stored information from those computers, launching attacks against particular web sites, or directing infected machines to send out spam e-mails" - snopes.com
If anyone has a computer issue or think that they may be infected by the Conficker.C Virus, stop into Quest for a fix.
