While the software does what it advertises, users have reported that it is hard to remove Popcorn.net and the Download Manager software when they are done with it. The Popcorn.net software grants you a free 3-day trial period during which you can use the Popcorn.net Download Manager service. According to the Popcorn.net Terms of Service, if your Popcorn.net / Download Manager software trial expires, you are required to pay for a minimum of one month of service. To avoid incurring this charge, you would have needed to cancel your Popcorn.net account before your trial expired.

Popcorn.net maintains that users with expired trials have entered into a binding contract and that these users now owe Popcorn.net money for the service they agreed to pay for. While their TOS is quite clear, there are no popup messages alerting users to this seemingly important detail until after their trial has expired and it is time to collect. The popups escalate in frequency until they disrupt your computing experience almost continually. In addition, Popcorn.net's Download Manager software also transmits a list of all installed programs on your computer back to the Popcorn.net organization. Popcorn.net claims that this helps them overcome any software "conflicts," but it has earned them a designation of Spyware from Schrock Innovations.

If you see these popups on your computer, you already have a Popcorn.net Download Manager account, and you MUST cancel your Popcorn.net account if you wish to discontinue service. Failure to cancel your Popcorn.net account could result in collection activities and damage to your credit report.
