    Yes they do really work, and quite well at that. Alot of the repeat offenders that you speak of may just be little tracking cookies. Not a big deal, just get rid of them. You'll get them simply from surfing the net, so that's why they almost always come up in your searches.

    Can you put a screenshot with what you find when you run AD-AWARE?

    i didnt say you didnt

    have you had kmd installed before, cos it sounds like not all of it has been uninstalled correctly.

    i just tried kmd yesterday again for a laugh, and before i uninstalled it, i ran both ad and spybot, gator showed in both. its some kind of marketing thing.

    just run spybot/adaware again and repair any problems
