This AlphaSkin is innocent here, though these leaks is definitely GUI objects, they are not freed and most likely with not closed handles. How this happen is easy to explain (i think), your introduced code most likely copied and pasted form ICS demos (assuming) but in all cases you are missing the part of converting and adjusting the read size for those strings, hence you are overflowing buffers and writing in places you should not, and because FastMM allocate memory once and reuse its parts will allow such overflow, also both AlphaSkin and ICs( the way you are doing it by not caching and reusing components) have very memory intensive operation, the code keeps overflowing and destroying GUI handles and may be other things, and that making AlphaSkin after each failed operation to respawn/recreate these handles and allocate memory on them. ps: many of the OpenSSL objects have zeros in its contexts or will be zeroed for security reason, so the overflow is writing 0's which make AlphaSkin think it is not allocated objects and not throw an exception.
