What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Put the attached html file on a web server.
2. Load the page.
3. Launch the task manager and watch the memory climb for the page.
4. Start the dev tools. 
5. Do a memory profile and notice that the HTMLImageElement count is higher 
than 100 and it continues to grow the more images are created and disposed.

This especially affects the "Chat for Google" extension making it appear to 
take up lots of memory.

Hover Zoom version: 4.0
Google Chrome version: 20
Operating system: OS X

Note there is a step 0 to install hover zoom.

If you need some assistance, please let me know, but at a high level it looks 
like Hover Zoom keeps track on images in the dom but doesn't get rid of them 
when they are removed from the dom.
