Kido

What is Kido?

Kido, which is commonly known as Conficker, is a horrifying worm that will enter your computer without you knowing it. Kido does this by exploiting weaknesses in Windows MS08-067. This malicious worm will cause serious damage to your PC. Kido is diabolical because it prevents you from visiting anti-virus and anti-spyware sites which could remove the infection. What makes Kido so fiendish and dangerous is that it can spread its infection to countless other PC's over your network. When Microsoft became aware of this problem they began to release a patch to fix the weaknesses in Windows. Everyone, though, hasn't installed the Microsoft patch, so Kido is still spreading like the bubonic plague. The most important thing that you can do is to install the Microsoft patch and pay careful attention to critical updates. You should also be scanning your PC with anti-virus and anti-spyware software that you can trust.
