See my earlier posting about Flash 10 memory issues and crashing IE. There are many bugs reported related to this on Adobe's bug tracking.
Does your app just hang, or in some cases does it crash IE? Did your app work better/ok using Flash 9? Mine did not have any memory issues under Flash 9, but they do with Flash 10. It may or may not be your code. It may be a this known issue with Flash 10. If it turns out to be Flex code related...please let us know. So far, I've not seen any coding solutions proposed to fix memory/crash issues. I'm looking for help too. Maybe this list will help us both. I wish I had the answer for both of us.
