I've been IDM and love it.

However, these days, IDM keeps popping up a message saying that it has found that it's been registered with a fake serial.

Has anyone gotten the same message? If so, is the program still safe? Safe or not, have you found a solution that makes the message go away?
Same problem, I've experienced like you, actually is not a problem, but it was so annoying, really. Big Grin
I just download another version of IDM with pop-up fixer and it's works for me.
LOL, that'll show them. Smile

Thanks!

So I just need to search for a version with pop-up fixer?
Something I have found that might solve that issue


Method 1
Open RUN dialog box [Windows Key + R]
Type “regedit” and hit ENTER
Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\DownloadManager
Find for “CheckUpdtVM”
Change value to “0”

Method 2
Go to the IDM directory
Find for “IDMGrHlp.exe” and delete it
Now find for “idmBroker.exe” and copy/paste in same folder
Rename the copied file to “IDMGrHlp.exe”
Restart your system to apply this effect

Method 3
Go to the directory “C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\”
Find for “hosts”
Right click on that file follow by Open With >> Notepad [Can be use any text editor]
Now just copy the below lines of code and paste it after the last line in the “hosts” file

Ya, you can try it Smile
As I said, I just download another version of IDM with pop-up fixer (look for the latest version & last upload/uptodate).
Or you can try these steps that are posted by NokTham.

Found the version with pop-up fixer. Works like a charm.
Where?

Share the wealth, brother! Smile
It can be "fixed" via the registry. No need for third party "fixes" or links to some other......
