PART 1: SHOPPING IS FOR HIPSTERS
After the cutscene, quickly get into your vehicle and dash over to the waypoint at Surburban Outfitters.
Walk into the store and fit Michael with a gilet and cargo shorts to fulfill the required look for the mission. With the clothes purchased, exit the store and hightail it to the waypoint at the Life Invader offices.
PART 2: VIRUS REMOVAL
Walk to the waypoint near the front doors to trigger a cutscene with one of the office programmers, Ricky. When the convo ends, follow him into the upstairs offices and towards his desk.
GOLD MEDAL REQUIREMENTS: "POPUPS CLEAR"
As soon as Michael sits down, the computer screen will be filled with pop-up ads. Hover over the red "X/A" button with the mouse and close each pop-up screen.
A faster way to clear the pop-ups is to constantly mash the X Button while moving the cursor for each pop-up. With this, you should be able to clear them out fairly quickly.
PART 3: PLANTING THE CHIP
When the task is done, walk over to the prototype room to trigger a cutscene. Once that's done, exit the building and get into a vehicle and drive back to Michael's house.

PART 4: MAKING THE CALL
Watch the TV keynote and wait for Jay Norris to show the phone. From there, bring up your cell and dial "JAY NORRIS" to complete the mission.
