How I got WEBUTATION virus?

My brother Jack is gamer. He spends all his free time to play. Online games and classic games too. So Jack got used to download too much software without paying attention on content and installation process.

He just installs everything by the fastest way he can – by default. And I was not surprised when yesterday he caught new redirect virus – WEBUTATION.
