Well, everyone's heard of this Conficker worm that'll be goin' around tomorrow, april first, and we all know what its supposed to be able to do, well in the interest of not losin' my laptop, I will not be on the internet on my Laptop and use its internet for a few days, now then I will be on Xbox live, those who know it, know it, those who don't, its Hajime Hyuga. Once this issue has been resolved, I'll return and hopefully have muse comin' out the ass.
Till then, this is a hopeful temporary leave of absence, I hope to return when this damn worm threat is over and done with, for a while, till then, peace!

...its not real... I don't mean to sound like a real jerk, but there is no way something like that could possibly happen. But, since its April 1st now. Theres no way you'll see this until tomorrow.

... Ummm...... You do know that companies tend to throw out April Fools jokes, right? Micro$oft is no exception.
Anyways... I was bored and looked into it, Avoim. You do know that in order for it to infect every computer on the 'net it would have to infect all of the DNS severs, right? And if people knew about it the internet would be down anyways because... well... a DNS server got infected.
I don't mean to sound like an arse... but like I said in the C-box... anybody that knows anything about networking knows that this is incredibly unlikely.... sorry... I had to throw my two cents into the pot

[just preformed full scan on system] After a story on the news, I decided it was safe, provided I ran a full system scan, to make sure nothin' was wrong.

I really don't think this is a joke...
Various new stations have broadcasted the story, and goverment officials are giving out warnings. Plus, there have been already millions of computers reporting the worm around the world today. According to the news, it is suppose to hit a majority of people tommorow.
