Windows Conficker/Downadup/Kido Worm Virus

Sorry folks, again not a particularly exciting topic from me...I'll keep it short. Just to warn of the increasing threat of this new virus...

I looked at 3 computers last week all infected with the 'Downadup' variety...took a serious amount of time to shift it, and although one had the Windows patch downloaded from the website the virus still managed to execute and cause mayhem...

PS: Oh and looking forward to meeting a few of you at the EDF drinks next month to prove I'm not a computer geek 24/7 :)-D
