The "Conficker"/ April Fools factor

    I have noticed that since yesterday (April 1 in some countries, including mine) and today (US, others), people seem to be scared of clicking ads on my sites. In result, I got bad earnings yesterday and even today. I am thinking maybe it is because of the fear of getting infected with "Conficker" (April fools day) virus. What you guys think?
