Recently there have been discussions on the internet and in the media that the Conficker worm was set to be deployed on April 1, 2009. This worm is spread through a hole in un-patched Microsoft Windows XP* and Microsoft Windows Vista* systems. While Microsoft has released a patch to plug this vulnerability, Intel® vProTM technology helps you remotely deploy those patches quicker to prevent outbreaks and remediate your systems more rapidly if an outbreak should occur.
