Conficker Eye Chart

Want to know if you have the nasty Conficker virus on your computer?  Some geniuses out there figured out a simple solution called the Conficker Eye Chart.

Conficker (aka Downadup, Kido) is known to block access to over 100 anti-virus and security websites. 

If you are blocked from loading the remote images in the first row of the top table below (AV/security sites) but not blocked from loading the remote images in the second row (websites of alternative operating systems) then your Windows PC may be infected by Conficker (or some other malicious software). 

If you can see all six images in both rows of the top table, you are most likely not infected by Conficker.

Have a look below.  Do you see all the images?

How to interpret:

If you see this above: It probably means this:
chartnormal = Normal/Not Infected by Conficker
chartinfected = Possibly Infected by Conficker (C variant or greater)
chartinfected ab = Possibly Infected by Conficker A/B variant
chartdisabled = Image loading turned off in browser?
Any other combination = Poor Internet connection?
