How do I get Droid apps to quit automatically starting up?

I have an app killer, but my battery drains really fast, even when I'm not using apps or internet.  When I go back in and look, I have a lot of unnecessary apps running when I didn't start them, like facebook and twitter and market, etc.  I don't even have a twitter account.  I understand the messenger and weather being open, but ei drains my battery faster when the other big apps start up automatically and I'm not sure how to get them not to.  Does anyone know how to do this?  Thanks

If you have 2.2 the the task killer makes your apps run in loops (draining your battery).

2.2 has optimized how apps run. Even if the apps show they are running they might not be using resources.

To make this short you should only use the task killer to kill frozen apps. Th new OS will take care of the rest.
