Help Background data sync keeps needing to be checked

For some reason, Background Data keeps disabling itself. I open the Market and an error occurs stating I need to enable background data. It takes me to Accounts & Sync where I will re-check the Background data checkbox.

I don't know why it keeps getting disabled on it's own. I don't use a task killer. What I do use is Timeriffic to turn off wi-fi while I'm at work---I used this program on my Aria to do the same thing and I never had this issue. I can't think of another reason why this keeps occurring.

Any suggestions?
