Conficker. Conficker, all day long with this. Apparently, it's not. This ittle bugger is still infecting machines daily, at a rate of about 50,000 or so in a 24 hour block, according to Guy Bunker, a computer security expert at Symantec. Bunker posted a heatmap which has tracked the virus spread since February. It's here. The United States, followed by Brazil and India are the most infected, according to Bunker. Mexico, Italy, and China also logged at least 89,000 infected PCs.
This little bug is a malicious piece of software that was expected to wreak havoc on April 1st of ths year. However, it did not take off quite the way as anticipated, but it has picked up its pace over the last month and a half. Initally, government, corporations, and educational system users were the once most affected.
