I'm not saying that Launchalot doesn't have multiple instances of itself created if launched from the Market or notifications bar. It probably does. What I'm saying is that when you launch apps through Launchalot, it doesn't create multiple instances of the apps it's launching. I was just trying to point out that it should be possible for the Market to launch apps in the same way as Launchalot same way and avoid this issue. > > I can see why the notification bar needs to behave differently from other >> launch points, but it seems me that the Market should not behave this way. > > > I don't know, I didn't make the Market app =P > Thanks. I wasn't specifically directing that at you.
