Conficker Worm On Android Can Only Be Stopped By The CreamPuff Update
The Conficker worm attack on April Fools Day can only be stopped by the upcoming Android CreamPuff Update.
The excitement of the great features on the Android CupCake development path is now trumped by the pragmatic solutions offered within the upcoming CreamPuff update.
Ed Burnette got the inside scoop on this important and necessary update for all Android phones from the same anonymous spokesman that provided all those wonderful CupCake rumors as detailed on ZDNet.
Not only will it stymie the Conficker worm and increase battery life to approximately a week, but also include:
- Support for the new A5DP Bluetooth standard, for realistic 5.1 surround sound
- Tethering via Bluetooth and WiFi
- USB host support for keyboards, external drives, and EEG
- Root access available by a switch in the user settings
- An expanded Android Market that allows developers to use descriptions up to 450 characters long instead of the current limit of 325
- A new audio codec especially designed to compress farting sounds by 95% - THANK GOD
Unfortunately you will need to shut your phone off and use Styrofoam cups with string to make calls until Creampuff is released on or about June 9th 2009.
