Hope the Conficker worm won’t bug you down this April Fool’s Day

April 1, 2009

Happy April Fool’s Day! :)

Did somebody play jokes or pranks on you so far? Well, just early this morning Dad warned me about the dreaded Conficker worm set to activate today and wreak havoc on Windows systems. He was watching the news on TV about it. I already read about it the night before and there was really nothing to be alarmed about as long as one’s computer has an updated antivirus program installed. Well, I have AVG free edition to thank for and I’ve scheduled my AVG computer virus scan daily in the afternoon. So, nothing to worry about… really.

What concerns me more is my laptop’s 2GB RAM which sometimes can get near 98% usage. Ugh…then there’s also my digital camera which needs some compact flash memory upgrade.

Anyway, other than April Fool’s, one thing that’s great about this day is the fact that it is my nephew’s birthday. Happy birthday Josh! :)
