Hey Peachtree City, as you know April Fool’s day is normally full of playful pranks, and plenty of tomfoolery but the prank on this April 1 is a real threat to millions of computers.  Well, you may not have heard about it until recently on the news or 60 Minutes but a virus call Conficker C, threatens come out of dormancy and take over your computer on April Fools Day.  The virus is said to be able to disabe all your security programs and then proceeding to steal all your personal information.  In fact, CBS reported that it had a recent fight with this virus which took them 10 days to find and isolate.  Does Conficker C pose a viable threat?   All I can say is that everyone needs to at least be prepared.
