Hi John, That seems to remove many of the leaks, but still leaves a comment, a script, a form and 3 DIVs. The script is caused by the removeChild just after the code you posted. Not had chance to check where the others come from, might try and dig into it more when I get home.
All of the elements are generally empty, so I think every case is from the "testing" stuff in jQuery.support. If you want to dig in the meantime, you can get Drip 0.5 here: http://www.outofhanwell.com/ieleak/index.php?title=Main_Page Doesn't need installing, just give it jquery.com, click "Go" then click "Show Leaks". It'll unload the page and show any dom elements left around.
