Although you should be fully protected considering your antivirus definitions are automatically updated, if you would like to take the extra precaution, you can run this Microsoft removal tool below.

This tool will check to see if your machine is infected with Conficker as well as some other recent malicious viruses and worms and remove them if found. Again, as long as your virus definitions are up to date, you should be fine, but thought you should be aware because this particular virus continues to spread even months after its initial discovery.
Please do not hesitate to contact our 24hr Service Desk at 212-867-4600 with any questions or concerns.
