So what do we think that this Conficker Worm is going to do? Theories? Apparently, it’s set to activate on April 1st. Exciting!
Meanwhile, this is actually just the sort of thing that Jonathan Zittrain has been fussing about for years.
At the moment, though, the worst thing a virus could possibly do to me would be to mess up my music. After spending days going down this path trying to get Windows, Windows Media Player, and iTunes to agree on how many songs I had, where they were, and whether they would play, I finally seem to have got it more-or-less lined up today. Now WMP and iTunes are in agreement. Windows used to be in agreement, too, but new searches are giving the wrong number of files – but I think they’re just cached from earlier. I hope. But this is my big accomplishment of spring break so far.

You're way too fancy for me. I *used* to just have all my music files randomly jumbled in one directory, but now I've upgraded to having them in different directories. But it still doesn't help that much because the files are all from different places and not all of them are ID tagged properly, so my MP3 player doesn't really understand all of them, and they *still* appear to be a big random jumbled mess.
Haha, the project of getting and keeping my music organized has gone on for years. But at the moment, their tags are as good as I bother to get them (I don't fill out all the fields like "composer" and stuff), and I'm pretty happy with it. But it really did take ages to get and keep it that way. Once it's organized, it's easier to keep it organized.
