Apps starting on their own?

[stevenjkraft]

I have been using my moment for about a week or so now and I feel like I am not getting very good battery life. I have been using advanced task killer to stop apps when I am not using them. I notice after about an hour if I go in to it that there are many programs running that I did not start. For example, voice control, sprint navigation, NFL, and a few others. The available memory at the top is usually around 25-30 when all this stuff is running. Even after I kill all open applications my memory is around 58 available. Is there a way to make these programs stop starting up? How much available memory should I have when nothing is running? Any advice here would be great.
