SWFObject Interview Question:

Explain why can we see memory usage increase on every page refresh in Internet Explorer?

Submitted by: Administrator

Recently the team from Anychart.com discovered the reason behind a long standing apparent Flash Player 9/10 memory leak when a user refreshes the page. This bug affects HTML pages which has a swf embedded on the page (whether using SWFObject or not) when viewed in IE 6/7/8. The reason for the bug was actually not the Flash player itself, but the Skype IE plug-in.
