Its called the conficker.c and its been around for years. Been several version of if from conficker.a, conficker.b etc...

Make sure you have the service pack 2 installed on your com-puter. You can download from Microsoft.

Also, Mcafee.com has a good read on it too.

You can also download an IP checker from McAfee to see if your computer has the conficker.c file.

I was reading up on this last night, it was suppose to happen at Midnight, but as you can see the world is still turning... so who knows... :huh
