Hi Davide,
did you use own javascript in your app?
If you assign htmlNode objects to javascript object properties and/or
vice versa the IE (at least IE6) did not correct free them on page
unload. You need to remove this yourself by assigning undefined to
those properties in the unload handler.
We had a similar problem in tobago which we solved this way.

Volker
