IBM's Security Internet Systems, known as X-Force have posted some interesting statistics on the Conficker virus on their blog. Over the course of the past weekend they were able to assemble a method to detect the attempts of infected computers trying to access their networks and based on that information create a snapshot of the geographical locations of these infected systems. Their report suggests that only a small number of infections are here in North America, just 5.8% and that the majority of infected computers can be found in Asia at 44.6% and parts of Europe at 31%. 

One of the possible reasons for the major gap between North America and Asia is the presence of pirated versions of Windows which are in popular use in parts of Asia. Systems running a counterfeit version of Windows cannot apply the latest security updates and so are susceptible to infection.

Here's the chart they've produced with all the results:
