I'm not familiar with VB at all, but if you're running command-line curl
via a shell exec, I doubt if it's curl leaking the memory. Every time
the command line curl exits, the system *ought* to reclaim the resources
used. If it doesn't, that's not curl's fault.

Of course, I could be wrong - I just got off work and have had a couple
of beers...
