Gatekeeper Aid is a supplement to the Gatekeeper Anti-Virus System. Gatekeeper Aid is a new component designed to locate and remove the WDEF viruses that have recently appeared and which are not hindered by Gatekeeper’s existing security system. Gatekeeper Aid also checks for possible future variants of WDEF.
Gatekeeper Aid automatically checks all files (not just Desktop files) as they are used for the presence of specific viruses and, if viruses are found, they are removed. Like Gatekeeper, Gatekeeper Aid runs continuously without the attention (and usually without the awareness) of the user.

Unlike Gatekeeper, Gatekeeper Aid requires no configuration by the user – its objectives are specific enough that there’s really very little need for configuration at this point.
Although Gatekeeper Aid is designed to supplement Gatekeeper, it does not require that Gatekeeper be present in order to operate.
Since they are designed to work together they do not violate the “Use only one prevention INIT” rule.
