Rumor has it that turning off your computer for the whole day only delays it being active to the next time you turn it on.

If you have your Windows updates done, your antivirus up to date, and scanned, and a good anti spyware program like Superanitspyware.com (FREE) up and scanned, you are in good shape.

Its April 1 today.

Can you go to Microsoft.com? Can you go to Nortons.com? If so, its a 99% chance you DONT have the worm. The worm prevents you from reaching either of these two sites.
