Conficker started spreading in November 2008, and was remarkably successful.
It has been in hiding for some 4 months, doing almost nothing.
We are accustomed to see malware bent on financial gain, but what is the
motivation for Conficker? The investment was made, the ammassed "firepower"
is large, and no gain has yet been obtained. Could the owners of 
Conficker be outside
of the usual criminal circles? Could it be a military project, waiting 
for a political event,
to activate?

Ciao!
