This actually depends upon the object you are using it with. In most cases,
the caller of the function is responsible for freeing it. Otherwise, the
object has no way of knowing whether you are finished with the BSTR object
or not.
So, you can use ::SysFreeString().
I always prefer using CComBSTR instead of this approach.
