A
new worm called Conficker or Downadup
is programmed to attack millions of
computers world wide on April fool’s
Day, it is stated. It is not known
whether it is another April fool prank
or real. According to a senior security
consultant Graham Cluley, the similar
type attack happened in January this
year and millions of computers were
infected in the process.
Microsoft is vulnerable to the worm
it is stated. The Conficker can spread
through USB flash drivers too.
