Problems With Assembly.Load

Ram

Hey,
I have a windows application that uses Assembly.Load to get information on
certain Assemblies.
But the problem is, that after the Load, even after I clean the object (set
it to null), I cant access (physically) the assembly I loaded - I keep
getting:
"The Process Cannot Access The File Because It Is Being Used By Another
Process".
And nothing I do realease the assembly, - the only thing that works is to
close the application lol...
Is there a way to release the loaded assembly?
Thanks ahead
