wmi memory leak?

[cs]

if I repeatedly call the following method on my winxp machine (and many
others) the svchost.exe process increases its memory very very quickly, and
doesnt go back donw, I have machines that after a day have svchosts taking 1
gig of ram, thank god I have 3 more to spare!

public static void GetNetworkPrope rties(String NetConnectionID )

{
try

{

SelectQuery sq = new SelectQuery("se lect * from Win32_NetworkAd apter where
NetConnectionID =\""+NetConnect ionID+"\"");

ManagementObjec tSearcher mos = new ManagementObjec tSearcher(sq);
foreach(Managem entObject mo in mos.Get())

{
foreach(Propert yData data in mo.Properties)

{
if(data.Name.Eq uals("Index"))

{

ManagementObjec tSearcher query1 = new ManagementObjec tSearcher("SELE CT
DefaultIPGatewa y,IPAddress,DNS ServerSearchOrd er,DHCPEnabled, IPSubnet,MACAdd r
ess FROM Win32_NetworkAd apterConfigurat ion where Index="+data.Va lue);

ManagementObjec tCollection queryCollection = query1.Get();

String[] ips = null;

String[] dns = null;

bool dhcp = false;

String[] subnet = null;

String mac = null;

String[] gateway = null;

foreach(Managem entObject adapter in queryCollection )

{

foreach(Propert yData prop in adapter.Propert ies)

{
switch(prop.Nam e)

{

case "IPAddress" :

if ( prop.Value != null)

{

ips = (String[])prop.Value;
}

break;

case "DNSServerSearc hOrder":

if ( prop.Value != null)

{

dns = (String[])prop.Value;
}

break;

case "DHCPEnable d":

if ( prop.Value != null)

{

dhcp = Convert.ToBoole an(prop.Value);

}

break;

case "IPSubnet":

if ( prop.Value != null)

{

subnet = (String[])prop.Value;
}

break;

case "MACAddress ":

if ( prop.Value != null)

mac = prop.Value.ToSt ring();

break;

case "DefaultIPGatew ay":

if ( prop.Value != null)

{

gateway = (String[])prop.Value;
}

break;

}

}

}
}
