I installed kazaa lite but not the host file. The file they said ad aware would detect (cd_clint.dll) doesn't show up in the scan. So, I never bothered to use the host file. I didn't want to anyway. I should be ok, right?

The recent versions of Adaware know the difference between the dummy cd_clint.dll of kazaaLite and the spyware version of Kazaa.
It won't list the dummy one after a scan.

The hosts file is used to redirect links for ads that kazaa uses so you don't see them, and they don't add spyware cookies to your machine.
