It appears that Conficker is still alive and well.

I heard about a local company today who on Monday of this week started having some pretty strange goings on in their network and called in their consultants to try to figure out what was happening. It turns out after much time spent trying to determine what was going, it was "just another Conficker Outbreak". (Still working on it as a matter of fact). They do have anti virus however the infection went undetected for quite some time. Why? Because Conficker did what Conficker does and it over rode the security software and antivirus software to allow them to do their dastardly deeds while remaining undetected. This company has close to 100 computers and more than 50% of them have been infected, some for a while it seems. Conficker has continued to grow its little Botnet and the BotHerder is still spreading their damage. If you look at the "pictorial" representation of the spread in the US alone from January to July it is pretty amazing.
