I would now like to say that a new thing on the blog is here...THE WEEKLY RANT! It will be released every Friday and one of us will rant about something that has happened this week.
This week's rant: CONFICKER WORM!
The Conficker worm scare was one hell of a hoax. Everyone had been talking about it and talking it up for weeks in advance and nothing happened. Basically all the worm did was change the way it gets its instructions and the media played it up and said that computers around teh world were going to crash and the virus would spread itself to others causing every computer in the world to crash. It was like Y2K all over again. I am personally disgusted at the media for fallign for this simplr prank and spreading fear to the people. The date of instruction change was April 1...APRIL FOOLS DAY!!! It was an elaborate hoax and the media, as always, fell for it. The worm did change the way it got its instructions but no computers crashed and nothign happenned. Now Germans have found the fingerprint and we are all "saved".
