Conflicker Virus DNS Blocking Batch File
Matthew sent me this e-mail:
Thanks for your useful blog post about the Conficker worm. To make it easier for people to block the DNS zones at the server level rather than deploying HOSTS files, I created the following batch files.
http://www.matthewcevans.com/
index.php?title=Conficker_ Virus_-_Add_DNS_Zones_to_ Windows_Server I’ve tested this on a Windows 2003 Server. It takes about 30 minutes to create all the zones. The DNS Console works, but takes longer to enumerate all the zones (10-15 seconds).
Feel free to post/use/distribute as you’d like.
