November 16, 2007 · version 1.2 DanYWE 4 has changed the process model so this wil no longer work.
To fix this will require quite a bit of programming effort so I'm afraid I can't see this working with YWE 4 in the near future.

No it is developed especially for yahoo desktop widgets. I am not familiar with google gadgets but if they are javascript that runs in the browser it may be possible to use the following leak detector along with firefox to see if they are leaking: http://plugindoc.mozdev.org/faqs/memusage.html#help-leakdetector
