What do I do with an iGoogle gadget that won't bloody go away? No matter how many times I close it and get the yellow bar saying "it has been removed", it's always back the next time I load the page. It has also screwed up my customization of all the other gadgets: they now no longer obey rearrangement, and while I can add new ones, I cannot remove them either, nor any of the ones I had before I added this gadget.

I have messed around with cookies to no avail (although I'm not at all sure that's where such a preference would be stored anyway). It's not even a gadget that works -- the content never loads (not for me, anyway). *tears hair*

Nuke the site from orbit.

It's the only way to be sure.

I'm not of high enough security clearance to have an orbital laser cannon.


I suppose I could always create a different Google account, but that seems like the "admitting defeat" solution, and I liked having one that was the same as my Gmail account, anyway. I suppose I could always email myself a Gmail invite and go from there, but that seems like the "admitting defeat messily" solution!

Report it to Google as a bug. Include a parenthetical comment that it would be great if something could be done about it.

(Meaning, if something could be done about your account. Rather than about the bug in general.)
