whenever i connect to the net my zonealarm firewall warns me that a search assistant called sais.exe is trying to connect to the net. i think this is part of my broadband access?? as it attempts to connect to the BT website (i use bt broadband) should i allow access or is it spyware??
More information here http://www.liutilities.com/products/wintaskspro/processlibrary/sais/ Hope this helps... Cheers
Hi zonecrew, and welcome to Wilders. As Blackspear's link will show you, sais.exe is not part of your ISP but is part of the 180 Search Assistant adware/spyware, so you have done right in blocking it's access to the internet. You can try uninstalling 180 Search Assistant through "Add/Remove Programs" first. There is more information for manual cleaning here: Kephyr - 180 Search Assistant If you do not have the following, then download, install and bring up to-date one of the following two anti-spyware programs (using both is also recommended and they work well together) and do a full system scan them: Ad-Aware SE Personal Spybot Search&Destroy Let us know how you make out.
