The only way then is to run kill -9 PID from the terminal every time, but of course that's not a solution... any idea what's going on? is this a pr1.3 bug?

I have exactly the same problem after installing 1.3. Last night my fully charged battery was gone in less than an hour. I can kill browserd, but keep checking whether or not it is running in the background is rather cumbersome. Any suggestions or help would be appreciated.
By the way, the software updater could not install 1.3, I had to flash my N900, but that seemed to work alright
