Sail Deals is the name of a totally useless and fake application that pretends to be a great tool to display best offers and deals for users to save them time and, of course, money. The sad truth is that, according to our malware specialists at anti-spyware-101.com, this program is simply an adware application.

Not understanding the potential threats these innocent-looking advertisements can hold is like playing a game of Russian roulette. We have tested this adware and now would like to share with you what we have found out about it. We hope that this can help you to understand the general risks and how you can remove Sail Deals from your PC. Read more »

PrintOnKey must have entered your computer when you downloaded something from a file-sharing website.
