1) Uninstall Offer Companion
2) Install Zone Alarms (strictly as an app controller)
3) Disallow Gator.exe and GMT.exe (the real culprit) to access the internet.

Voila! Gator can't phone home with current web page info ... so, can't get counter-spamming ad pop-up information.

Now, Gator is back to being a password helper!

Hey thanks! Now I can go back to using Gator because I uninstalled the whole dang thing out of sheer frusteration. I loved it before that, but it got so annoying with all the "helpful" changes or whatever it ceased to be what I orignally wanted it for, simply a password helper.
