The downloaded file bundles up potentially unwanted software and adware, so you shouldn't download it. Your computer is already infected, downloading additional malware onto your computer will make the situation even worse. You may easily end up installing spyware on your machine. Needles to say, it's detected as malicious or potentially dangerous by most anti-virus scanners. Pht.gzipserver.net pop-up ads are usually displayed by web browser extensions called LyricsMonkey, LyricsSay, LyricsContainer, BestLyrics, etc. All these extensions fail to deliver what they promise: show lyrics next to each Youtube music video. But they do deliver ads very well.
So, the first thing you should do is identify the malicious web browser extension and remove it from your web browser. It could be any of those I just mentioned or it could be a completely new one but I'm pretty sure it will have 'lyrics' in its name. Then, you should scan your computer with anti-malware software because even though it's pretty straightforward to remove web browser extensions that display pop-up ads there might be other malware installed on your computer. If you have any questions or difficulties removing the Pht.gzipserver.net pop up virus from the system, please leave a comment below. Good luck!
