In many cases the previous answers would resolve the problem but Moviepass is something different.\n\nIt's a whole bunch of files and programs that have installed themselves on your computer.\n\nWhat I can't understand is that you say Moviepass appears when you go to your homepage.  Through my website I've helped 40,000 people remove Moviepass but this is the first time I've heard of this happening.\n\nMoviepass is programmed so that when you switch your computer on you get an annoying pop-up that plays music and demands payment, it lasts for 90 seconds and freezes everything else on your computer.  It also appears at intervals which get more and more frequent.  Does this sound familiar?\n\nYou'll find everything you need to know about Moviepass and how to remove it from your computer on this page: http://profend.com/answers/moviepass \n\nIf Moviepass has actually changed your homepage then I'd really appreciate it if you could e-mail me and let me know.  That way I can amend my webpage and let visitors know what to do if this has happened to them.

just delete all of the contents and stop using it.  Eventually it'll go away.

It probably wasn't one of your kids.  Moviepass has been found on tens, if not hundreds, of thousands of computers and in almost every case it's appeared without anyone's knowledge or consent.\n\nThe marketing campaign is very aggressive.  I'm assuming that what's happened is that Movipass has installed itself on your computer and you're now getting repeated demands for payment because your 3 day trial has expired.  These demands will be in the form of pop-ups that play music and tell you that you must pay or your credit rating will be impaired, legal action taken etc etc.  The pop-ups last for 90 seconds and stop you doing anything with your computer.\n\nWhat you probably aren't aware of is that you have an account with Movipass (just like the program you never wanted you've also got an account you never wanted).\n\nIf you go to this website... http://profend.com/answers/moviepass it will take you through all the steps needed to cancel your account and remove MoviePass from your computer.

you cant remove it from your add/remove programs that easily because it just redirects you to a website and will ask for credit card info. BUT you can start by deleting the folder/s for popcorn.net in the hard drive in the program files section. then check the add/remove program list for any program that you dont need or use. then use an anti-spyware and anti-virus software to scan your computer.

There's lots of people having problems with Moviepass and in most cases it's something that has installed itself without anyone knowing anything about it.\n\nIt's actually a bunch of files and programs and what tends to happen is that after becoming installed it 'hides' for 3 days after which time it announces its presence with an annoying pop-up style window that demands payment and threatens legal action and to impair your credit rating.\n\nI've spent considerable time looking into Moviepass and have been advised by specialist internet attorneys that the way they operate is illegal and that unless someone has consented to the program being installed then they can not legally take any form of recovery action.\n\nThey seem to like threatening people and I've received threats of legal action myself because I created a website dedicated to helping people remove Moviepass which they obviously don't like.  Similar sites have also been threatened but to the best of my knowledge no action has, or can legitimately, be taken.\n\nOne problem is that adware, spyware and virus scans will almost certainly have no effect as it's none of these things.  Pop-up blockers won't stop it as the pop-up isn't a conventional pop-up but a program which is being run on your computer.  Using Add/Remove programs usually doesn't work as this just takes you to the Moviepass website.\n\nThe removal procedure can be a little bit complicated because there's lots of files and folders and as mentioned, it's not like a conventional virus.  Everything you need to know about Moviepass and detailed step by step removal instructions can be found here http://profend.com/answers/moviepass \n\nIf you get stuck there's a help request form and there's an FAQ section which will answer many questions.

You won't be able to close the pop-ups as what you're getting on your screen is a 90 second broadcast created by a program installed on your hard-drive.  I'm guessing it's a message from 'Cate' threatening you with legal action and to impair your credit rating, the pop-up can't be closed, minimized or anything and it's playing awful porno style music.\n\nIf you're *positive* that you didn't agree to install Moviepass then they can't make you pay - that's the law, simple as that.\n\nYou won't be able to delete it using Add / Remove programs or by highlighting the file or folder and deleting it - this will either take you to their website or tell you the program can't be deleted.  To get round this you need to use Task manager to shut down the programs before deleting them or you need to start your computer in Safe Mode.\n\nIn the last feew days Norton Anti Virus has added Moviepass to thei list of known problems, if you have Norton then get the latst updates and run a full system scan.  Panda Internet Security and PC Tools Spyware Doctor are the other 2 programs that will automatically remove Moviepass.\n\nIf you go to this website: http://profend.com/answers/moviepass there's more info about Moviepass and how to automatically or manually remove it.  If you go to the FAQ page there's info about Moviepass the company and the position in respect of them making charges.\n\nFollow the instructions on this site to permenantly get rid of all traces of Moviepass.

INTRODUCTION\n============\n\nI've been reading several posts about this and it seems to be something that's annoying the hell out of a lot of people.\n\nThe general opinion is that it's very hard to get rid of and that it's something that adware removers, pop-up blockers, spyware removers, Hijack This etc seem to have no effect on.\n\nMoviepass and Movieland install various files on your computer when you download it, you then get asked for payment.  From what I can gather there's a free 3 day trial after which the charge is $99.\n\nThe following is an extract from the terms and conditions of Moviepass.\n\n"If you do not either cancel or provide payment information during the trial period our billing software will be enabled upon the expiration of your trial period.  The billing software will run on your computer, displaying pop-up window reminders that provide you with the various methods of payment for the annual license.  These pop-up windows will appear more frequently until you choose one of the payment options and pay for the license."\n\nNow, as far as I'm aware Moviepass and Movieland are one and the same thing and can be deleted in the same way - it's a bit long winded but here goes...\n\n\nWARNING\n========\n\nI HAVEN'T TRIED THESE INSTRUCTIONS MYSELF SO I CAN'T GUARANTEE THEIR ACCURACY.  YOU MAY WANT TO MAKE BACK UP COPIES OF FILES AND PROGRAMS BEFORE THEY'RE DELETED.\n\n\nUSEFUL TIPS\n===========\n\nYou might want to read all the instructions first before starting the removal procedure.\n\nYou may find it's easier to print out these instructions, I've uploaded them as a Microsoft Word document here... http://profend.com/answers/moviepass.doc as a text document here... http://profend.com/answers/moviepass.txt and as a normal webpage here... http://profend.com/answers/moviepass.html \n\n\nREMOVAL INSTRUCTIONS\n======================\n\n1 - Click on <Start> (bottom left of screen)\n\n2 - Click on <Control Panel>\n\n3 - Click on <Add or Remove Programs>\n\nA long list of the programs that are installed on your computer should appear, it may take a little while to 'populate' the list.\n\n4 - Look for something called "P2PNetworks"\n\n5 - Click on it so that it's highlighted\n\n6 - Click on <Change/Remove> (or similar)\n\n7 - Confirm you want to uninstall\n\n8 - The program will uninstall, it only takes a moment.\n\n9 - When done click <Close>.  P2PNewtorks should no longer be on the list of programs on your computer.\n\n10 - There may be other programs that you need to uninstall.  Look for any of the following... Media Pipe, AltPayments, Download Manager, MyAccessMedia.  If you see any of them then repeat the steps above to remove them.\n\n11 - Don't close down Add or Remove Programs just yet as you'll need to come back to it later.\n\nThat's the end of this part.  Next there's some files that need to be deleted.\n\n12 - Open My Computer (Windows Explorer).\n\n13 - Double click the icon for <Local Disk (C:)>.  If the main drive on your computer has any letter other than C then click the appropriate icon, e.g. <Local Disk (D:)>\n\n14 - Double click on <Program Files>.  If there's a message saying "These files are hidden" then click where it says "Show the contents of this folder"\n\n15 - Look for any or all of the following and delete them (single click, press the <Delete> button then click <Yes> to confirm deletion).

Try going to a section in your computer called, "My Computer," and deleting the programs you do not want.  It would also benefit you to download a "POP UP" protector.  If my answer doesn't help you, then put your question in the Internet Section of this Q&A group.

As far as I'm aware Movieland is now defunkt but surprise, surprise it's back again but this time under the guise of Moviepass.\n\nMoviepass is something that surupticiously installs itself on a users computer then after 3 days increasingly frequent pop-ups appear demanding a monthly or annual subscription.\n\nIf this sounds familiar then try the instructions on this page... http://profend.com/answers/moviepass.html although they're written specifically for Moviepass you should find they work for Movieland as well (just substitute the word Moviepass for Movieland in the instructions).  There's also a customer support phone number on that page as well.\n\nHope this resolves the problem if you haven't yet been able to do so.

It's probably just a conicidence that you're getting the pop-up since signing on to Yahoo.  Yahoo is a respectable company and Moviepass is anything but, I can't imagine that there's any connection between the two.\n\nIt's more than likely that Moviepass has become installed on your computer without anyone consenting to it and now it's threatening you with legal action and to impair your credit rating because the 3 day trial has expired and you have to pay.  If no-one agreed to install Moviepass then these are empty threats and the way in which Moviepass is operating is illegal.\n\nFull instructions for the removal of Moviepass can be found here... http://profend.com/answers/moviepass
