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.
About Paul Spoerry
I’m a groovy cat who’s into technology, Eastern Thought, and house music. I’m a proud and dedicated father to the coolest little guy on the planet (seriously, I'm NOT biased). I’m fascinated by ninjas, the Internet, and anybody who can balance objects on their nose for long periods of time.
I have a utility belt full of programming languages and a database of all my knowledge on databases... I practice code fu. Oh, I've also done actual Kung Fu, and have a black belt in Tae Kwon Do.
I run. I meditate. I dance. I blog at PaulSpoerry.com, tweet @PaulSpoerry, and I'm here on Google+.
I'm currently work for IBM developing web enabled insurance applications for IBM and support and develop a non-profit called The LittleBigFund.
