The New 2009-2010 FC Barcelona Kit
Okay right away I can easily say I love the old school HOME jersey which brings you back to the traditional navy blue and claret vertical stripes of bygone glory years.

It is outlined with yellow threading on the v-neck and at the shelve ends. The Catalan flag has been placed on the back collar with “Més que un club” (More than a club) sewn on the inside of the neck as seen in the image below.
Attached to the side stitching is also another small label with the name of the club.

The 3rd Jersey
Made of Nike Dri-FIT® - advanced material designed to absorb sweat allowing the player to feel dry and fresh as long as you wear it. The three-dimensional architecture allows a greater circulation of air around the skin which also prevents the shirt from sticking
The Senyera
The official shorts are a classic navy blue with a claret stripe down the side and incorporate the Senyera (Catalan flag) on the back of the waistband. The cords have the stripes of the Catalan flag and the socks have horizontal claret and blue stripes, a yellow edging and have the word “Barça” stamped on the calf.

Conficker.C Worm
MyCERT has been observing increasing trend of IT security related discussion and information sharing about a worm variant called Conficker.C on the internet. It is expected that the enhanced version of previous worm variant Conficker.A and Conficker.B will trigger on the coming 1st of April. Security researchers believe, the latest outbreak of Conficker variant C began first spreading at roughly 6 p.m. PST, 4 March 2009 (5 March UTC). MyCERT would like to highlight that this is not a new outbreak nor a new piece of malware. Removal and mitigation strategies were highlighted in our previous advisory.
MyCERT is working together with various parties local and abroad to mitigate and reduce the risk of the new variant.
2.0 Worm Description
Conficker.C represents the third major revision of the Conficker malware family, which first appeared on the Internet on 20 November 2008. C distinguishes itself as a significant revision to Conficker B. It is clear that the Conficker authors are well informed and are tracking efforts to eliminate the previous Conficker epidemics at the host and Internet governance level. In Conficker C, they have now responded with many of their own countermeasures to thwart these latest defenses. Some of the major enhancements are:
- Domain Generation Algorithm - Conficker.C will select 500 domains out of a randomized pool of 50,000 instead of 32/250 for the previous variants.
- Peer to peer logic - This new coordination strategy employs a P2P protocol, and the Conficker authors have taken some care to hinder its analysis through code obfuscation.
- Local host patch logic - This is to protect its host from other malware that would attempt to reexploit the MS08-067 buffer overflow, while still allowing re-infection from other Conficker hosts.
- Security product disablement - Most antivirus and security software domain lookup will be prevented, important MS Windows security service will be disabled, security products process termination, obfuscating its installation and presence as well as MS Windows firewall disablement.
3.0 Software Affected
All unpatched Microsoft Windows XP and Vista for advisory MS08-067. MyCERT had earlier released an advisory for this. Please follow this link for more details on advisory. http://www.mycert.org.my/en/services/advisories/mycert/2009/main/detail/626/index.html
4.0 Technical Details
Once installed, Conficker.C implements a variety of nasty behaviors. The worm will attempt to disable Windows Automatic Update and stop access to the Windows Security Center, can detect and kill SysInternals' Process Explorer program, and will interfere with the operation of a number of other search-and-destroy programs including WireShark and SysClean.
It will also reset and delete system restore points, disable various services (including WinDefend, BITS (Background Intelligent Transfer Service) ERSvc (Error Reporting Service) and WerSvc (Windows Error Reporting Service, Vista-only). In a final fit of pique, Conficker.C will prevent any attempt to connect to a variety of antivirus software services or websites.
5.0 Mitigation
Generally doing the following shall mitigate infection and spread of conficker
- Apply the latest Microsoft Windows updates
- Apply the latest antivirus signatures and updates.
- Browse the Internet with least privilege user to limit the execution of the malicious file.
- Do not open questionable email attachments and/or browse to unknown websites received via email from unknown person or received email unexpectedly.
