Internet Explorer 5 is leaking large amounts of memory, how can I reclaim it?

A. When you use the default download behaviour to download and parseExtensible Markup Language (XML) data (for example by using Digital Dashboard),the memory used by Internet Explorer may grow quickly. This memory is reclaimedby clicking the Refresh button. However, if you leave Digital Dashboardrunning for many hours or days, the computer may slow down because of a memoryshortage as IE is not correctly performing "Garbage collection".

To avoid having to manually click refresh every x minutes you can write ascript which does this automatically for you in VBScript (or you could useanother script language). If you added the following to your web page:

And then have a call to call it every x seconds:

SetInterval("Refresh()",10000)

The SetInterval sets a timer for the Refresh() calls and the 10000 is thenumber of milliseconds between each call.
