I found that in the view loaded from another view there is also variables from parent view. I don't want they to be there.

It's a feature. It allows you to do

Code:
$this->load->vars(array('site_name'=>'My site'));

$this->load->view('header');

// ...

$this->load->view('footer');

// the same without the vars method

$data['site_name'] = 'My site';

$this->load->view('header',$data);

// ...

$this->load->view('footer');

And in the view files you just echo $site_name without binding the variable to each view.

If you want to change this behavior you need to overwrite the _ci_load method of the loader class.
