Some of the common features of Downadup/Conficker are:
It copies itself to the system directory as a randomly-named DLL file and adds itself as a system service.
It disables certain Windows services that might aid in cleanup or detection of the worm, such as Automatic Updates, Background Intelligent Transfer Service (BITS), Windows Defender, and Error Reporting Services.
It deletes existing system restore points to prevent recovery.
It blocks access to multiple websites related to antivirus and security, most notably Microsoft and Windows Update.
It spreads through the local network by using password brute-forcing or exploiting a vulnerability in the Windows Server service (MS08-067). It also adds itself to any removable or network drives using an autorun.inf file.
It waits three hours, then attempts to download additional code by generating 250 different domain names and connecting to each via HTTP. Each day a new set of 250 domain names will be generated. The downloaded code may vary depending on the variant of the worm.
