How often do you check your pad for saturation, during the day? I tend to spot a lot too, but it happens the most often when I am not checking my pad regularly.
I usually put in a super absorbency tampon AND use Always Ultra Thins [super absorb] with wings, and I *still* leak sometimes!... because I don't check to see if things are getting saturated, until it's too late. (Yeah, I have pretty heavy flows, though it has decreased since I've been on birth control.)
Also, I think taboo and owl are right... your underwear in itself may be a problem. Are you making sure that the wings are wrapped carefully around the sides and sticking only to the fabric, instead of getting stuck to themselves? (Often happens.) And cotton IS better for pads, I think... especially if it's very well fitted and there's nothing loose to get moved around.
