I have only recently installed internet for the first time in my life. While allowing Dell and Microsoft updates on my computer I also erroneously allowed US based thieves called popcorn.net to install their 3-day free trial license in my computer. Now, since 29 August, they regularly keep appearing on my computer, changing my desktop picture, and demanding extraordinay payments that have nothing to do with me. All my efforts to remove their programme via add/change/remove programmes have failed, and their FAQ menacingly says that no one can remove their license without payment! I have absolutely no interest in their service, have made no use of it, and have absolutely no desire to pay these corrupt people for what was supposed to be a 3-day trial anyway! Please tell me how to get rid of these outrageous people.They are driving me round the bend and I am deeply upset. Thank you very much to anyone who knows what to do and can help. Philip A.
