use anti-virus,anti spywares and anti-ad wares like spybot,lavsoft.get them from download.com.use firewall. also type msconfig in Run and go to startup and disable all the suspicious programs that start up with your computer!! it seems your system is hijacked by viruses,spywares and trozans!!!:(

I highly recommend you download superantispyware. It will remove popcorn.net. It is VERY effective and it is free.
