Not only that, but having gone through this process, I've discovered that it drops several dlls and files that do not read as adware or spywear... since they lay dormant... the installer files are just that... install files.  The dll's are not what act as the Trojan... so they are usually skipped too.
Really, the only sure-fire ways to make sure you really get rid of it are using the step-by-step, or just do the logical thing.  Don't install KaZaA.

adaware doesn't catch them all - didn't we already have this conversation?

To all you software and Music Pirates:
 
KaZaA is placing a lot of extra junk on your computer, that essentially turns you into another company's tool.
Since you agreed to have these "Trojans" when you installed KaZaA (remember that popup license agreement that you probably never really read?), this will not read as a virus... but can cause just as much problems as one.
This is confirmed, as I just helped 3 people "de-Trojan" their computers after discovering that they were pawns to KaZaA's hidden installations.  If you find that you are "infected" by this, and don't know how to get it off... well, I guess you should have never used KaZaA in the first place, huh?
 
That'll teach ya to share things illegally.  =P
