what can be done about this

[bengal85]

Hey guys
I have heard about the conficker computer worm is there a known way to block that. I think there is a patch that can be downloaded but I can not find it.

Any help would be appreciated. I like my computers to much to have them wrecked be a super virus

The MS patch is KB958644. Check the Microsoft site and download this patch. Make sure it is installed on all of your computers and keep your AV updated and you should be fine.

I would not be concerned much about it. do the best ya can do. if ya dont want the individual update with microsoft then goto www.update.microsoft.com
you will get that patch and all others too. get all security and critical updates.
