If you're already manually removing event listeners and deleting created objects, and you really wanna nail this and don't mind spending a few hours learning something new then I totally recommend the Temple Library for ActionScript 3 by MediaMonks
http://code.google.com/p/templelibrary/ Extend all your MovieClips from 'CoreMovieClip', utilise the 'destruct' method, and view/test the results in the 'Memory' class. It's saved my bacon, hope it's useful to you too.
