  I have some PDF articles in my website which are read only for users. But every time I want to open it, IDM (Internet Download Manager) popups and provide the downloading option of the article to the user, which I want to block.

  Please somebody help me that how could I stop/block IDM (and other download managers) from this sort of activity.

  Thanks in advance!!!

  WordPress.com is in no way related to that Internet Download Manager thing. You could try to get help from the developer of you could remove it.
  Never forget the golden rule:”everything you put on the internet van and will be downloader one way of another.” You can try to make it more difficult to download files from your site but you’ll never be able to prevent it.
