#2 Task Killer will interfere with email accts when the go to automaticly refresh, i wasn't recieving any of my Yahoo or Hotmail until i uninstalled Task Killer and rebooted the Droid(i found this out through another Droid site)


Hope this helps
I'm not convinced. When I kill all the running processes, it shows that my available memory increases. In addition, I notice that the animation on the task bar coming down is SIGNIFICANTLY improved after I kill all these "background" processes that were eating that memory. This issue needs to be addressed.
