Help Task that run all the time.

I have Advanced Task Manager my question is why do so many tasks start up on their own. I kill them with ATM and a few minutes later go back in to ATM and tasks like Stocks, Photos, Footprints etc are running again without me starting them. How are they doing this and how can I stop them?
Thanks

Welcome to the forum!

Unfortunately, that is just the way these apps were designed.
That is why many believe task killers actually hurt your phone more than they help.
Killing an app that is just going to start up again uses up more resourses than just leaving it alone.
Try going without a task killer for a few days and you'll see that they are not needed.
Android manages it's own memory well, so even though the app shows that it's running, it's not hurting anything.
