I am new to Windbg. I am trying to debug my application in c++ which
is throwing an access violation exception.
I guess this is due to some memory leak.
But I am having hard time getting details usig windbg. Looks like
reason is symbols are not available and it shows following details in response to command "!heap -stat -h"

I have set my symbols path to path of my .pdb files and I am using
debug built for debugging purpose.
I have also added following line in my symbol path
SRV*c:\symbols*http://msdl.microsoft.com/download/symbol
My source path is also correctly set.
I did not download any symbols from web. I am using windbg on Windows
vista home premium.
I am not sure what else information will be needed by someone who can
help me out of this hell.
Thanks and Regards
