Default Site Advisor for internet explorer 7

I have site advisor installed on internet explorer 7 and it stays in the greyed condition all time. I have removed site advisor and reinstalled it with the same results.

No asking to D\L anything mind you - I Emailed SA but got short shrift and told SA had not checked those sites yet - I Emailed again to tell them they were their own sites and asked what they were up to - no reply.
Curr Ports shows them calling home and I am wondering if all users are being
treated in the same manner.

I liked the idea of this program before this mob took it over but now it looks as though giving it the big A is my only option, unless other users can
suggest how and why this method of theirs is legit.

Regards.

I've received the following alert on my Sonicwall device:

11/21/2006 19:13:19.720 Alert Security Services Gateway Anti-Virus Alert: Zlob.AWU (Trojan) blocked 216.143.70.73, 80, X1, pla-sadownload.mcafee.com

I don't use McAfee. So, why would McAfee send Zlob, a viral signature for Zlob or anything AT ALL to me? Is it because of my SiteAdvisor program

It's really unfortunate that I have to remove SiteAdvisor now. But I can't tolerate this behavior.
