So, April 1st came and went, but now we are seeing a little more conficker activity. Reports have given some details that this variant is only programmed to operate upto the 3rd May 09, so who knows what happens after that.
What is now being seen though, is that if you are subjected to the latest E variant you could be infected with an anti-malware bit of code called “SpywareProtect2009″. If this is then activated, you will kindly be asked to cough up $49.95 to clean false infections on your machine, and not the real ones you would like to be cleaning up in the first place.
