User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.6) Gecko/20070725 Firefox/2.0.0.6
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.4pre) Gecko/20070619 Sunbird/0.5

When Sunbird is starting up, and refreshing more than one calendar with tasks, it will show tasks from only one calendar and duplicate it a few times (I think it depends on the number of calendars but can't confirm).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create 2 Calendar (Network->CalDAV, can be on the same server with different accounts)
2.Create 2-3 tasks in each calendar
3.Restart sunbird
Actual Results:  
One of the task is displayed in duplicate. and the other tasks are not shown.

Expected Results:  
Each created tasks should be displayed.

Workaround, select/de-select one of the calendar to refresh it and it's all fine.

I'm having trouble reproducing this with a current nightly, so I wonder if this isn't something that's been fixed since the 0.5 you are using. Could you please retest with a current nightly?

Also, you mention 2 accounts / 1 server. If the accounts are in the same HTTP authentication realm and you are attempting to use two sets of credentials against that realm (instead of using a single credential set and relying on server-side ACLs for authorization) you may be seeing bug 247486.

regarding bug 247486, the Oracle caldav server works around this bug by having different realms per "ownership of folders" so I don't think this is the issue. I will retry with a nightly and add my results.
