Sorry ahead of time if this is a really stupid question if this is supposed to happen and running in the background is a feature, but even though I'm not using either of the Reddit is Fun widgets, they are always listed as running processes.

I have the paid version of the application and am running it on a nightly build of CyanogenMod on a Mytouch3G, but I've been experiencing it since I installed the version that introduced widgets and tried them out.

EDIT: I know that this is long dead and nobody is going to read this, but in the off chance a RIF dev of some sort stumbles upon this - THANK YOU! You added the ability to disable widgets and my obsessive ass is forever grateful. You are awesome.
