I've been making sure all my home pc's are up to date all evening. This virus is very real and can do more than just harm your computer - it can send bank account info to its creators.

I updated yesterday! Everything seems to be fine. I am able to log on to Mircrosoft's website. I guess, if you can't log on to their site it is a clue that the virus is on your computer.

Just wanna ask you guys if you did experience anything confickerish (surfing, pc) today? So was that virus a hoax?

No, the article from today is reading that it's keeping a low-profile because of all the attention.. but there's still a huge risk for people who's computers are infected.
