Scare tactics, stop worrying people.

Conficker C    2009-02-20    

    * NetBIOS
          o Exploits MS08-067 vulnerability in Server service[8]
          o Dictionary attack on ADMIN$ shares
    * Removable media
          o Creates DLL-based AutoRun trojan on attached removable drives

   

    * HTTP pull
          o Downloads daily from any of 250 pseudorandom domains over 8 TLDs[9]
    * NetBIOS push
          o Patches MS08-067 to open reinfection backdoor in Server service[10]
          o Creates named pipe to receive URL from remote host, then downloads from URL

   

    * Blocks DNS lookups
    * Disables AutoUpdate


Most ISP's block the port for NETBIOS by default.
