Conficker Worm infecting infecting PCs through emails

According to my good friend and computer expert, Felix, the so-called Conficker Internet worm is entering PCs through emails servers!

Be careful about clicking on links in emails today — even if you know the sender. You will also receive emails from yourself that you did not send.

The body of the emails includes a link to a product that the sender highly praises as a good buy and invites you to click the link to see the product. DO NOT CLICK THE LINK! Clicking the link will activate the worm, which will use your computer as a server to send infected emails to other computers.

If you receive an email from yourself or from a friend asking you to click a link to purchase a product from China, etc., — delete the email immediately and run an anti-virus scan on your computer.

For more information on protecting your computer from the Conficker worm and other virus, call Felix at (404) 468-7616.
