Swine flu vs. the Conficker worm

Shopgirlove isn't really all that worried about the latest flu pandemic.  While the Spanish flu was nothing to sneeze at, the ill-named Swine flu is statistically only slightly more deadly than every other flu strain seen in the recent past.  

But, the worm!!!!  Shopgirlove is really quite unnerved by the Conficker worm.  She mentioned it in passing some time ago--more of an aside really in a post about the frightening state of the economy.  However, having done a little research and having experienced some alarming stutters with her own laptop, she is beginning to think this is one virus we may be underestimating. Shopgirlove is pretty sure swine flu won't matter that much if hospitals are infected with this new pandemic.

Wash your hands!
