    So... Conficker, Downup, Downadup, Kido, whatever it's called...what's happening?

    The big fuss, it's all over the news, but is it actually doing anything...that we know of?

    Is it the worm ... that wasn't?
    Big April fools hoax?

    That would've been choice. The perps get turned in, Microsoft coughed the £175Grand or so reward & it turns out to be a big hoax.

    Keep an eye on the Internet Storm Centre at http://isc.sans.org/ - they should keep things up to date.

    So who wouldn't vote for this guy?


    Goverment Intervention.....what a perfect way to distract, and manipulate, the Millions of people online than might pay attention to him, rather than some "obscure" virus that "might" affect them......Labour spin at it's finest!!........and a healthy 2.7% increase in their salaries whilst the rest of the Country join the Jobless queue!!.

    Brings the "Vote none of the Above" to it's pinnacle......Look to see if both Labour and Conservative don't rubbish him, in one form or another, in the next six months.......a True speaker for the "Ordinary Man", yet villified as an "Insurgent" at most of the meetings he attends as an MEP.......Perhaps they have never met another who did not believe in the "Euro Gravy Train" before......I for one one would follow his lead

    In short nothing. It was really over-hyped.
