a question regarding Flickr = power hungry and hidden within my phone

[erry]

After using Power Tutor i found that Flickr is using a massive percentage of the power within the applications beng listed

as i don't actually use Flickr itself-- i wondered why this is so?-

is there another programme that his flickr within it?-- or should i just 'force stop it'?

what is its purpose on there?

Root and get rid of it!

a nice idea in theoryand i hear what you're saying-- but unfortunately i've only had this phone a week- so would have no idea about how to do it- or what it (rooting) actually means.

It opens up the full potential of you phone but, get used to your phone first and then head over to the rot forum and read like crazy!!

I would force stop the app for now.
