The creator of Popcornew has decided to promote the program using an official-looking website popcornew.com. Even though the program could be promoted using the software bundling method as well, it seems that many users have to delete the application after downloading it from the official site. The site does not present an extensive privacy policy like most applications would, and so it is difficult to fully understand how it works. Of course, this is a good enough reason not to trust the program or to remove Popcornew altogether. The affiliate parties are not disclosed, which means that it is practically impossible to know which parties will display banner and pop-up advertisements on the sites you visit. Furthermore, it is unclear whether these ads will actually present the promised offers. Unfortunately, it is most likely that the displayed ads will not be useful. Furthermore, it is impossible to know if schemers will not use the services of Popcornew to display unreliable ads which could expose you to different security threats. Needless to say, the removal of this adware is extremely important.
It is obvious that you should remove Popcornew from your operating system. If you have decided to delete the application from the operating system manually using the provided instructions, you must keep in mind that you may have to delete Popcornew from the Google Chrome browser separately.
