How did I get infected with?

This virus has no download option on its website. That means you can’t have downloaded it voluntarily.  Most infections don’t even need your active cooperation. They rely on your distraction instead.

Preventing installation isn’t a particularly challenging task. To achieve it, you just have to pay more attention to the programs you give green light to. Check out the Terms and Conditions of the bundles you’re about to install. If you spot some sneaky intruder, don’t hesitate to deselect it. It is much less troublesome to protect your PC in the first place than to remove malware. Hence, make sure you take care of your device on time.
