Conficker.E description

Conficker-E is the latest version of the notorious Conficker worm. It seems that creators of this malware are not ready to give up yet.

Learn more about Conficker.C and April 1, 2009.

Not only Conficker.E infects new machines, but it also “updates” computers infected with previous versions of the worm. The malware spreads via MS08-067 exploit; keep your Windows OS updated in order to prevent the infection.

Conficker.E functions in pretty much the same way as its forerunners. The worm joins compromised machines into a botnet. The computer then might be used for DDoS attacks and spam attacks. Conficker a.k.a. Downadup also establishes hidden remote access to the PC.

Conficker-E comes with two additional features. First of all, it downloads W32.Waledac trojan as if Conficker wasn’t problem enough (click here to remove Waledac trojan). It may also download rogue security tool Spyware Protect 2009. Click here to remove Spyware Protect 2009.

   Spyware Protect 2009 is totally messing up my web browser. It won’t let me on any site; I’m so upset. I’m hoping that this will help, I’m downloading the removal system right now. I’m glad I didn’t buy it; I’m super protective about my computer, so I was worried that I really had been infected. UGH stuff like this pisses me off!!!!!!

   I downloaded the removal tool. There is no free version I saw despite claims that there are. I am satisfied however since it did remove this nasty little bugger as well as 157 others that “Spybot search and destroy” missed. I have no trouble getting into sites or email with the exception that auto-log-ins are wiped out so I have to re-log in. No biggie to me. Make sure your browser is current as well as your OS updates.
   Thanks for the removal tool!
