Firstsputnik is installed when you download and install some program you found online. If you don’t embrace the habit of mistrusting at least a little of everything you could get offered with, you easily end up with a huge amount of unwanted programs that are installed at the same time as the ones you actually chose. And this can happen even if you download from a popular/known place like zdnet.com. What you must understand is that all these websites get paid every time one of this parasites is installed. This program is offered from the beginning of the installation process, but most users never read what’s being offered and tend to go mindlessly clicking on “Next”. Sometimes you might need to customize the install process to notice what they could be trying to force upon you, which is of course more unwanted parasite programs.
