Rooting is a process of gaining superuser permissions (also know as root access) in any device. The device manufacturer put some restrictions to the users for security issues and by rooting you are simply throwing all the security holes open and taking the control to your own hands from the system. It's like gaining administrator access on your Windows PC or gaining root access (with sudo su) command in Linux PC. So, then why do people root their phones even if the issues is so critical and is related to security? That's because rooting provides them with full system read/write access and opens path for further customization of their android smartphone.

    Ran this file on my 2.3.6 Kies-ed Ace then ran CLockworkModAce and I notice some odd behaviour: 
    1. the Home key doesn't show recently-run apps when long-pressed or the Home screen when short-pressed
    2. got FCs with processes called 'adservice ...androidapp.secad?'' and 'provider.drm'

    Do these sound familiar? Might it be something else?  It doesn't seem very likely, but what do I know**?

    Hope you might have an idea or two.

    It certainly doesn't sound familiar to me... This might not be due to rooting at all. But, I suggest you do a backup of your important files and data and then go to stock recovery (not Clock Work Mod recovery) and then wipe data and cache (will remove all data in internal memory) and then flash this root file and reboot. Now, it must be working fine and then restore your data and apps.
