The Conficker worm, A.K.A. Downadup, continues to plague users around
the world. The worm exploits a vulnerability that Microsoft addressed in
October of 2008 with an emergency Security Bulletin released out of
their normal 'Patch Tuesday' cycle. Apparently a fair percentage of
users didn't get the memo though and millions of unpatched systems have
been victimized as a result.
