I copied the following excerpt from the "Targeting New Platforms"
html docs in the "Windows" section:
--------------------------------
"Note about DLL names:
Windows plug-ins currently work by compiling your DLL data into the
application, and then at runtime, copying this back out into a DLL
file in the Windows system folder, so it can be loaded as code. This
requires that the user have write privileges to that folder. If she
doesn't, your plugin will not be written out, and your app will
instead attempt to load an existing DLL of the same name."
--------------------------------
I seem to remember that plugin DLLs are loaded into memory now (in
REALbasic 2005+) instead of being copied to the hard drive. Is this
true? Should the docs be updated to reflect this change?

Guess why this leaks memory.
