This is a Japanese Urban Legend. 

The Red Room Curse is an internet-focused story that starts with a pop-up (The image above). The pop-up features a red screen with black text that reads "Do you like the red room?" which is accompanied by a sinister pre-recorded voice asking the same question over and over. No matter how many times you close the popup it will always come back unless you let it finish it's question. Afterward your entire screen will turn red and become flooded with past victims' names. No-one knows what happens next but they assume that the victim harms themselves until they die. The victims are always found dead with their blood painting the walls red, creating the titular red room. Once you receive the pop-up, it is impossible to escape your fate.

Origins: Unknown.
