(PhysOrg.com) -- Last week the global internet community was hit by the Downadup worm also know as Conficker, or Kido. This worm is now using multiple ways of infecting computers, including USB sticks. If someone were to take a USB memory stick from one infected computer and plug it into another, it would infect that computer and the network as well. Once a USB memory stick is infected, there is no Microsoft patch to remove the worm.
