Easy Eye chart can tell if you have Conficker

PaulSpoerry | April 4, 2009

April Fool’s Day passed with much angst over and little action from the Conficker worm, but that doesn’t mean it’s not a threat or that you don’t have it. Joe Stewart from SecureWorks has put together an “eye chart” that sources its graphics from sites that Conficker would block. Click here to view the chart. If you can’t see one or more of the images, you’re either infected or image loading in your browser has been disabled. It’s a test based on the fact that Conficker blocks legitimate security Web sites. The logos are sourced remotely so if they can’t load, then the sites are also likely to be blocked.
