    All of the information I have read states if you are infected you will not be able to browse to the Microsoft site or to anti-virus sites like Symantec. The virus essentially tries to prevent you from taking measures to remove it.

    Sweatiness, nausea, loss of appetite, and eventually vomiting and diarrhea.

    For those who think they were infected. Visit kaspersky.com, they are providing free solutions/free removal tool to get rid of this bad ass Kido aka Conficker... Just browse the site at the left pane.

    As long as you have updates from October 2008+ you will be fine.

    not sure, but i don't think there's any way to detect it so far since it is like a silent bomb.
