Sounds like a virus. See point 4 in this thread

Read the whole thread, it's got some good advice about what not to download

Yes, it is a virus. Heaps of people are getting it lately. Read the thread, it'll help you get rid of it. Make your brother read it as well

Make sure you have a good, up to date AV program. Spyware & adware removal programs are a great idea, too. Scan a file before you open it!!
