Conficker Worm in Hiding at an Australian Supermarket Chain

The Conficker worm has turned up in the most unlikely of places: Australian discount supermarket, Aldi. The worm was discovered pre-installed on a four-in-one external hard-drive, DVD, USB, and card reader combination device. It is recommended that anyone who might have bought one of these hard-drives format the hard disc drive and, if they can, run an anti-virus product on it before use. The malware is extremely old, with some of the malware being seen since in August 2008.
