I don't know about Alcar, but I hate Kaaza because they force you to use Adware/Spyware. I used to run an older version of Kaaza where the Adware was optional. A few weeks back, it decided to stop working and kept locking up whenever I pressed a button. So I downloaded the latest version and found it wouldn't let you install the program unless you wanted to install some program that would put pop-ups when you are browsing (GAIN I think). I don't mind ads in Kaaza itself, but to force advertisements during your web browsing, I'm really against that.

But this actually led me to find a great alternative to Kaaza. Kaaza Lite is a hacked version of Kaaza that is not supposed to contain any Adware or Spyware, other than a small sponsor ad on the front page when you start the program (okay, it's for a porn search engine, but as far as I can see, it's pretty above board). I've had Kaaza Lite installed for a week or so now without any problems, and my firewall hasn't detected any intrusions.
