Considering this virus has been around a while and uses an exploit that has already been patched on Windows computers, there shouldn't be anything out of the ordinary. If you patches are up to date and your anti-virus is running, then you are not likely to have any problems.
A quick Google search does wonders!

Subject: [SkunkworksAMA] Rumored Conficker Virus ("Super Virus")
