I'm still awfully curious to find out what this badboy is going to do.:p
Is the sky still falling? Was it really ever? :rolleyes:
I'd just force everyone's browsers to be redirected to a picture of Britney spears' vagina on April fools.
Just another april 1st !
Thank god Im not workin on wednesday. Anyways, for you system administrators out there. Dan Kaminsky and a few other guys have developed a way to scan for Confiker.
http://www.doxpara.com/ Here is his blog with the relevant links. It looks like the guys at nmap are also trying to integrate some scanning.
Have fun finding out that the whole /24 network has it.... or that it has been overhyped since the beginning.
You guys have it all wrong...
it's a plot to divert everyone to webpages containing flash images of lolcats poping out of Britney Spears' Vagina with Rick Astley's music playing in the background.
My betting is that not very much at all will happen.
These guys seem to be rather professional (MD6 hashing? and 500 out of 50,000 URLs a day :eek:) so I would suspect commercially criminal in their ultimate objectives. It wouldn't make much sense to expose their potentially valuable botnet right now?
Unless its the Chinese trying to trash the G20 Summit in London?............ which doesn't make much sense either.
I like China and Russia more than I would France, Italy, and Germany.
If a meteor threatened the earth... the latter group of countrys would want to hold a meeting with dust and rocks.
Please allow me to arrange your "summer camp"?Quote:

EDIT:
Seems like not much has happened:

The worm was programmed to modify itself on Wednesday to become harder to stop and began doing that when infected machines got cues, some from websites with Greenwich Mean Time and others based on local clocks.
Conficker task force members tracking Internet traffic in Asia and Europe after clocks struck April 1st there said there was no sign that the worm was doing anything other than modifying itself to be harder to exterminate.
Anybody know the specific patches to counter conflicker? Chit, I got one office
still running XP/SP1 on some units, SP2 on others. They've got a lot of problems,
needless to say. I'm going in today to scan select machines using nmap (thnx
for that link, luc1d).
edit -- Lazy me, looks like it's MS08-067.
