    Possible virus

    Ive just had a student come in and say that they caught a virus on the memory stick from the school computers. The virus is jwgkvsq.vmx which by googling i see is a varient of conficker.b. My AV hasnt picked up anything like this so is there another tool that i can scan my network with to check if he did catch it here or if somewhere else!

    Just seeing the word conficker has woried me a bit if he has infact caught it from here!!
