Conficker is a virus that started spreading in 2008. It will search for "new instructions" on april 1st. The exploit it used is patched now, you cannot get it anymore unless your computer is not patched (update.microsoft.com to download patches). Simply run an UP TO DATE antivirus scanner, and the virus will be found and removed.
If you have a Mac you are immune.
If you run Linux you are immune.
