I would concur with @Aliostad re GC. I does its job very well, BUT it is not a tool to magically clear all of your memory.

If you have memory leak problems, the most straightforward and reliable solution is to use a profiler, whih should be able to identify if you have a genuine leak and where it is. I have used Ants from Red Gate, but others may have better suggestions.

As well as following the usual guidelines, like making sure you properly dispose of stuff. Calling GC and hoping that it will work is not an alternative for proper code assessment.
