puzzling conficker worm issue
Hello, I have several windows 2003 svc pack 2 systems with latest patches including ms08-067. I tried running symantec D.exe, MS malicious tool and ran scan from MS online. Conficker is not detected at all, but I keep getting the AT1, AT2,,,,, jobs droped into my scheduler which results in many runddl32.exe processes. If Conficker is not on systems, how do you suppose this is happening? tx in advance! Jack

Hi Jack, Thank you for the post. Please ensure KB958644 installed on your server and read KB962007 to know virus conficker more details. I suggest you run Microsoft Safety Scanner scan your system with server disable NIC connection. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/958644 http://support.microsoft.com/kb/962007 http://www.microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx If there are more inquiries on this issue, please feel free to let us know.

Hi, I ran the Sophos tool and it came back clean and did apply the 958644 patch and ran the MS security scanner with no virus found. did not apply all steps in 962007 yet, as checking that it wont present issues in the environment first. 1 - SEP still catching/deleting downadup.b 2 - Same exact time as 1, there is a new task inserted into scheduled tasks. Plx let me know if other thougths on this. tx
