April foooooooooooooooool

I guess.. So many computers broke today on different forums so cant believe its true

 

[lilblaze]

It is true dude. There's a new worm out there on the Net that was updated today April 1, 2009. Sh-- is so bad for so many people right now. So I've heard less than 2% of U.S. computers have been infected, but it's been totaled that over 8 Million people have been affected. You can read about on multiple security websites and see YouTube Videos warning people to be weary of this crap that will F--- your computer the F--- up.

The worm that was updated today is called the Conficker C Worm.

For everyone who thinks this is a joke, keep laughing - But when you end up like Quaters, I bet you'll be LOL'ING BIG TIME RIGHT.

It takes your information and deposits onto the Hacker's computer sucking MILLIONS OF BANK ACCOUNT PASSWORDS etc.... To be sold away!

After it does that it controls your computer and turns it into a SPAM BOT. THE COMPUTER ITSELF LAUNCHES SPAM TO ALL OF YOUR CONTACTS STORED ONTO YOUR COMPUTER, ALSO SPAMMING FROM LOG IN SITES SUCH AS MYSPACE, FACEBOOK, AND MANY MORE POPULAR WEBSITES.

Guys and girls I'm not telling you this to scare you but quit thinking everything is an effing game. Some things in life just aren't amusing whether or not it's happened to you. Some guy can control the Government because he's more of an effing wizard than the 10,000 employees hired to hack and keep them safe. (BEING EXTRA DRAMATIC HERE BUT YOU NEVER EFFING KNOW.)

Now to be hypothetical, the Government could be playing one evil a-- trick on the world but I SOOOOOOOOOOO HIGHLY DOUBT IT. TAKE PRECAUTION, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

Note: THIS THREAT IS SPECIFICALLY DIRECTED TOWARDS PC USERS!!!! APPLE CO. ARE ABOUT TO BE SOME RICH TERDS!

ugh thats terrible

How exactly does your computer become affected? Do you open an email or visit a website? Or is it just random?

Sorry, you fail. It's his auto updater that he lost, since RSBot is open-source there is no need to reprogram, sience the source is on the internet, and I bed Speljohan has it too.

Worms are one type of a virus, actually you can get viruses now days by only opening a website or by mail if you don't have an up to date anitivirus running. You can also, of course get viruses by downloading suspicious files.

The hacker is dead. His virus is still alive tho >.>

 

[mon94key]

The name of the virus isnt Conflicter C
Its got 32 diffrent names the 4 most popular being
Conflicter A
conflicter b
conflicter c
conflicter d

also its hacked into 16 schools 4 govement computers some bank in germany and many home computers theres like a 135k reward for finding the person also i belive the virus was embedded in too a windows service pack and if you didnt have antivirus it would affect you like my friend got hacked.

i find it uttly sick and disgusting the fact that people can do these kind of things also micosoft is gonna suffer a big hole as more and more of its customers move too free operateing systems like linux and stuff

Conflicker (Not Conflicter) has infected many systems, but has not taken much action yet. It has not hacked into 16 schools, 4 government computers or a bank in Germany for two reasons:

1. Viruses don't hack. Conflicker is a botnet binded to a worm. It will download or await instructions, until then, it won't do anything. After receiving instructions some how, it can infiltrate servers, crash sites, phish large amounts of people, etc.

2. I doubt Russian hackers are out to get RSBot because they are firm believers in following the Runescape rules.

EDIT:

Also, if someone is smart enough to create a new botting program and network for Runescape, I'm pretty sure they know how to run a virus scan and remove it.

I can't believe he didn't already have the all the files backed up...

It really bothers me that people who make $1K a month off donations do not backup their files onto something as simple as a flash drive!

taken from wikipedia:

Conficker is believed to be the most widespread computer worm infection since SQL Slammer in 2003.[7] The initial rapid spread of the worm has been attributed to the number of Windows PCs (estimated at 30%) which have yet to apply the Microsoft patch for the MS08-067 vulnerability.[8]

By January 2009, the estimated number of infected computers ranged from almost 9 million[9][10] to 15 million.[11] Antivirus software vendor Panda Security reported that of the 2 million computers analyzed through ActiveScan, around 115,000 (6%) were infected with Conficker.[12]

Intramar, the French Navy computer network, was infected with Conficker on 15 January 2009. The network was subsequently quarantined, forcing aircraft at several airbases to be grounded because their flight plans could not be downloaded.[13]

The UK Ministry of Defence reported that some of its major systems and desktops were infected. The worm has spread across administrative offices, NavyStar/N* desktops aboard various Royal Navy warships and Royal Navy submarines, and hospitals across the city of Sheffield reported infection of over 800 computers.[14][15]

On 2 February 2009, the Bundeswehr reported that about one hundred of their computers were infected.[16]

A memo from the British Director of Parliamentary ICT informed the users of the House of Commons on 24 March 2009 that it had been infected with the worm. The memo, which was subsequently leaked, called for users to avoid connecting any unauthorized equipment to the network.[17]
