I had these guards http://waterfall.crane-plastics.com/ installed on my 
house in May.  I'm under some rather heavy tree cover ( 
http://www.xxiii.com/wcox/House_Pix/Front%20of%20House%20small.jpg ) and so 
far they've worked very well.  At about $4.50 a linear foot, they were a 
bunch cheaper than some of the others out there (that included 
installation, plus pressure washing the entire roof & gutters.)

For a DIY install, I think a kit of 40 feet of the material is only about $140.
