With this utility you can simply find memory leaks (CRT and COM) in your program (with almost no time-cost during runtime). Each leak is written to a file with the callstack of the allocation.
using System;
using System.Xml.Serialization;

namespace MemLeakAnalyse
{
	/// <summary>
	/// Summary description for Options.
	/// </summary>
	public class Options
	{
    public Options()
    {
    }

    public Options(Options o)
    {
      Set(o);
    }

    public void Set(Options o)
    {
      this.lastFile = o.lastFile;

      this.lookupDirectories = new string[o.lookupDirectories.Length];
      for(int i=0; i<o.lookupDirectories.Length; i++)
      {
        this.lookupDirectories[i] = o.lookupDirectories[i];
      }
    }

    private string[] lookupDirectories = new string[0];
    public string[] LookupDirectories
    {
      get
      {
        return lookupDirectories;
      }
      set
      {
        lookupDirectories = value;
      }
    }

    private string lastFile = null;
    public string LastFile
    {

        return lastFile;

      set

      s.Serialize(tw, o);
      tw.Close();
