Am I the only one annoyed at how the media is overhyping this? And the fact that now they've got people calling it ConfLicker?

"Variant C contains code to sidestep these countermeasures by daily generating a pool of 50000 domains across 110 TLDs, from which it randomly chooses 500 to attempt for that day. This new pull mechanism—which was disabled until April 1—is unlikely to propagate payloads to more than 1% of infected hosts per day, but is expected to function as a seeding mechanism for the worm's peer-to-peer network."
Like I said, media hype. They were saying it's going to be judgment day or something.
