The Honeynet Project has discovered an anomaly in Conficker that makes it possible to detect infected hosts with an elaborate fingerprint scan over the network. This is great news if you suspect an infection and have no other means to check, or if you simply want to double-check information that your other defense mechanisms (IDS, AntiVirus, etc) provide.
The write-up and scanning tool are available on the Honeynet Website.
