Update for everyone.
.
Nothing really was suppose to happen on April 1st. Except that conficker was starting (it will take a couple months for every computer to update) to the new version “C” to “D”.
.
So far, Conficker doesn’t really do anything except update, block security websites, open up doors for itself, copy itself ot other computers and disable protection software
.
The question is what will Conficker do?
There are theories that the guy is building a huge computer “bot-network” in which he can command Millions of computers to do his bidding. maybe hack the government, send spam, steal millions of financial records, phishing scams who knows…
.
So right now there is nothing to be terribly worried about… except getting it off your computer if you have it. (have fun if you are on D already Heh..)

Here are some tools for removal and scanning (scroll to ”What should I do? How do I know if I have it? How do I remove it?”):
