Hi Diane,
We've have exactly the same problem. We have TasKiller v2.2 installed
but we DO NOT use it to kill our app.
However, our service (running every one minute thanks to AlarmManager)
never restarts after process has died.
Here are the log extracted today on my HTC device under 1.6:
[...]

Do you mean that the problem could come from TaskKiller application ?
Once problem has occurred I still can see our app in TasKiller as
Italic/grayed (which means that a service is running in background) or
yellow.
Thanks.
