Tool: IIS Debug Diagnostic Tool (DebugDiag)

I recently was referred to this tool by a MS rep while troubleshooting some IIS Hangs and Crashes.  It is still in Beta, but you can grab it via the Guest ID "DebugDiag" at http://beta.microsoft.com :

The IIS Debug Diagnostic Tool is designed to help identify common problems that occur in applications, such as Internet Information Services

If you have ever tried to wrangle Adplus or other debugging tools to take minidumps, full dumps, or catch crashes, you know how much of a pain it can be.  This tool simplifies things and hooks-up Debug Host directly to your selected processes.  Also, it uses rules which can be simply setup via predefined templates for crashes, hangs, memory leaks, etc.

Enjoy!
