Subject: Does frying foods create cholesterol ?

Say you start with a piece of chicken - skin included.  Conventional wisdom says 
if you bake it, there is less cholesterol.  However, if you fry it, there is 
more cholesterol.  Does this mean that extra cholesterol is created by different 
cooking methods?  This is the same piece of chicken afterall.  And if you say 
its because of the oil one fries the chicken in, what about the fat free oils?  
Does one still end up with extra cholesterol/fat when using them?

Thanks Mad Scientist
