I gotta believe Advanced Task Killer isn't the 4th most popular app on the Android Market simply because of a placebo effect. I think maybe it has less to do with misbehaving background apps and more to do with general wonkiness these days. When you experience those weird events like dial pad lag, missing notification sounds, slow home screen switching, ATK can fix that very quickly. The only other option is a phone reboot which takes a few minutes. From talking to my friends with Motorola Droid's I'm starting to believe a lot of this is HTC Sense and not Android itself. They don't seem to have as many of those random WTF moments. (ie, audio from two apps playing at once, audio playing while you're on a phone call, etc)
