I am confused. When you are talking about killing the task, are you talking about on the host OS or within the emulated phone? I can't do it within the emulator, because the emulator won't start. I can start the emulator from the command line, but it won't start from within Eclipse. If you are talking about the host OS, what would be the name of the activity task process?
I re-booted my laptop, and now I got the following when I tried to run my application. I saw the quick command prompt screen come and go away, but the emulator never launches.
