Is there a way to prevent mycontacts from being loaded on startup of the phone filling the whole desktop?

In the monitoring calls for, what is the difference between
a) Auto Reject Calls and
b) All( reject private calls)?
We can only choose one option. Does it mean if we have a contact to be rejected and we added the contact to the rejected list and we select option (a) the person can call us from a private number? Or does it mean if we select option b and the contact added to the rejection list can still call us?
The reason is I have someone on the rejected list and I selected option b [All (rejected private calls)] and I can still receive calls from the person on my rejected list. Is there a way to have both private numbers and a person on your contact list rejected?
Thanks.

You can always check the application log to find out what is going on. It should list any call you have received and how the application dealt with it.

Also, is there a particular format the phone number has to be added in for it to be blocked? I live in the USA so when calls come, it starts with a one e.g 1-xxx-xxx-xxxx. For mycontact to block that number do we have to delete the one precede the phone number or it should automatically detect and block the number with or without the one in front of the number.

With the new CSSU update MyContacts widget losses the black background and contact page losses some icons.

After 2 months with MyContacts, i finally decided to uninstall it. It is nice, but makes n900 *SO* slow :-( conky shows that it is primary reason of high disk io peaks on otherwise idle machine, despite the fact it is *most* memory consuming application..

The only two things that should stand out is when it is loading the contacts for the first time and that it will "hold" some memory. I can't think of any reason to take CPU cycles or disk io.
EDIT: MyContacts on my phone while idle reports 0.0% CPU.
