Yo...

I don't have any anti-virus thing on my laptop but I went to Microsoft and that other site and it worked fine. My computer's a tank

...but anyway..what should I do from here? And it's 10:30 where I'm atso in an hour and a half is when this thing will start flying for me?

I'm considering not turning my computer on from 12:00AM Wednesday until 12:00 AM Thursday but that dude on the last page said that wouldn't doanything...

Also turning off your computer won't help. But I'm still doing it anyways

Some conficker removal tools:

Microsoft Malicious Software Removal Tool:

http://mscom-dlcecn.vo.ll...indows-kb890830-v2.6.exe

F-Secure removal utility

ftp://193.110.109.53/anti-virus/tools/beta/f-downadup.zip

McAfee's removal tool

http://67.97.80.71/vil/co...ger/Stinger_Coficker.exe

This $@!! is not touching me

This joint aint loading for me.

R.I.P?

Nope, go to microsoft.com and then download it from there. Thats what I did.

[heatpinoyboy]

Just updated and ran 3 scans
So good so far

 

[therenegade23]

No...I can't access Microsoft.com.

 

[cucumbercool]

I'm a little worried now lol. My anti virus hasn't done its update/scan in a few days. It may be because a friend installed a game but either way callme paranoid but I think tomorrow I'll especially keep computer use to a minimum.

 

[kash55]

Media is making too much of this. Just update your anti-virus and you'll be fine!

 

[nyzmagician]

This is a noob question but how do you disable auto-play?

 

[krey1231]

This works to my advantage, I got a paper due tomorrow.

 

[23jordancollector]

I checked my computer and I have it already. lol.

[julian wright]
