It bugged me that Poser had begun to "phone home" every so often, until I realized it was because Poser offers a 3-week trial period. It has to know to turn off after the trial period, if you haven't purchased it. And it knows if you've purchased it once you "phone home" every 3 weeks (I imagine that's the length of time used; I never pay attention to it). Now, it doesn't bug me as much.
