… Does that mean that we’re out of the woods? I say that we’re not. Viruses with triggers have consistently failed to do anything on the date they were supposed to. Just look at the Michelangelo virus (1992), CIH (1999), SoBig (2003), and MyDoom (2004) for examples of this. But you never know.

To that end, I spent yesterday running around making sure my clients comptuers were clean of the nortious virus and making sure they have all the latest Microsoft updates installed. So I can say that at least my clients are protected from whatever this is. Now I have to catch up on my blogging.

I’ve pointed out some good resources on this virus in the past. So if you haven’t looked at them, you may want to now. In the meantime, we’ll see if this is much ado about nothing. Or if a Skynet like botnet is about to come on line.
