Interesting entry, I have the same problem (almost) ... I wonder if a test
like this could have better results:

function discardElement(element) {
         var garbageBin = document.getElementById('IELeakGarbageBin');
         if (!garbageBin) {
                 garbageBin = document.createElement('DIV');
                 garbageBin.id = 'IELeakGarbageBin';
                 garbageBin.style.display = 'none';
                 document.body.appendChild(garbageBin);
         }
         // move the element to the garbage bin
         garbageBin.appendChild(element);
         element.parentNode && element.parentNode.removeChild(element);
}


which is the most common DOM way to remove elements.

Regards
