*.ldf files are becoming smaller each night

While monitoring the logical log files I noticed that they were often smalle
r
in the morning. I've been trying to find what is doing the shrink.
I see nothing in the maintenance plan about trunking the log file and I have
found nothing else.
The only clue I have is that, on a slow day, the date stamp on the file is
just a couple minutes after the machine reboot.
I want to avoid the fragmentation that happens when the file grows.
Can anyone help me explain this?Autoshrink?
