Default Conficker Worm Strike Reports Start Rolling In

Here's a quick roundup of some of the more notable incidents caused by Conficker so far, according to published reports:
- A nuclear missile installation near Elmendorf Air force Base outside of Anchorage, Alaska briefly went on a full-scale military alert after technicians manning the bunker suspected that several of their control systems were infected with Conficker.

What??? So they took the base to full military alert instead of calling BB's Geek Squad to remove the infection?


...Oh psh, I fell for that one. : /
