[android-developers] AsyncTask thread does not terminate

I am using AsyncTask. When I call the 'execute' function, a new
thread is created. However, when the doInBackground function returns,
the thread remains (seemingly forever), even though I have no
references to the AsyncTask object anymore. This is true, even if I
force a garbage collection.

How do I get the AsyncTask thread to exit?

Thanks
