According to my understanding version 1.51 is all that's available and
if you have a
prior version that allowed multiple accounts.... see the following from
the site: (so in essence there is no longer the former version...and all
links that list it are actually version 1.51.

NOTE! If you have created multiple accounts/profiles in previous
versions of Popcorn, you will only see and be able to choose the first
account/profile in freeware mode (you can still view and edit all of
them in the User Profile Manager). All accounts/profiles will be
available again immediately after you have registered Popcorn

But the disabling will only happen if you're upgrading from an earlier
version to 1.51 -- I can't see anything in the documentation that
disallowed onward distribution of the earlier, uncrippled versions.
(Since Popcorn doesn't connect through a Popcorn server, there's
clearly no way that a current version can disable any features of
earlier versions.)

I've just tried mine -- I use it very little, and haven't upgraded
since version 1.24 in September, 2002 -- and it was very happy checking
three accounts for me.

[I've still got the .zip installer for 1.24, (a) if anyone's interested
in that old a version, and (b) if it's legal to distribute it.]
