I recommend keeping your computers off n April 1st to protect your computer from the Conficker. Its a 2 stage worm, stage A spreads it around, this stage has already succeeded in infecting millions of computers. Stage B is activates it on April 1st. The second stage gets you computer ready to receive a set of instructions on April 1st. No one knows what happens after that, but if I were you I would try to avoid getting those instructions, if your PC is off or not connected to the internet that day then you should be 100% safe. Also UPDATE your virus protection/fire wall and get all windows updates as soon as you see them.

It isn't guaranteed to activate April 1st, but it is likely according to 60 minutes/CBS.
