Hello sentinel;
Haven't heard any recent news about the re-emergence of Conficker, but would appreciate any links you may have as to any documented instance of this nasty rearing its' ugly head again.
Most of the reference that I can find date to 2009 / 2010, but you can have Link Removed - Invalid URL as to what Microsoft offers in the way of information, removal and detection and see if that helps ease your mind.
Hope this helps and good to hear from you. By the way I moved your thread to our security zone forum for better context.
Regards
Randy
