Oh dear. Which version are you using, the latest release 5.1.0 or the
latest CVS version? I have made some changes since the last release so
if you're not doing so already make a try with the latest CVS version.

I must admit that I have never tried the MSVC++ 6.0 debugger. Could you
please send me the instructions on how to make the debugger detect the
memory leak?
