The Conficker Working Group has developed a great visual resource to help folks instantly check to see if their systems are infected.

If you can see all 6 images, your system is okay :thumbsup: :flowers: :trumpet:

Yes those images are hotlinked from antivirus websites. By viewing that page you try to access antivirus websites, if you cannot see pics from antivirus websites then those websites are being blocked. If blocked then conclusion is Conficker. If not, you are clean.

Nifty work :thumbsup:

Hi
I can see all the images. Thank God :inlove:
I have a question. I have Quickheal Antivirus Total Security 2009 installed in my machine.
The moment I connect to the internet, it keeps popping messages that YZ.jpg or gif has been found in the temp Internet folder and possible is a Conficker infection and the file has been quarantined or repaired.
Is this the mode Conficker infection? What else should I do to protect my system?
This happens daily with a stream of files. I can send you my antivirus log report.
Best regards,
Yps

Hi Yps,
i think you should do a online check if you are unsure if you are infected. The thing is i also can see all images, but i keep getting an alert from Nod32 that some .gif or .jpg in the internet temp, at regular intrevals (around 50 min). I just registered and will start a new topic with my scan results. I hope the people here can help you too.

I can only see three images. Ran a complete scan with KIS, Super Antispy ware and Malwarebytes and nothing found.????? Question! Can your security (KIS) stop the images .

Just checked, I can see all 6.
Which ones do you see? You should be able to see top three images atleast. Check if your browser or some other plugin is not blocking these images.

Can you visit these sites:
http://www.f-secure.com
http://www.trendmicro.com
http://www.avast.com
http://www.kaspersky.com


If you cannot see them, then post a new topic in Am I Infected section : http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/forum103.html
In the topic, tell them all details as why you think your system may be infected with Conficker. Do not post any logs yet.
