I've heard lots of good things about valgrind but alas and alack, thats for linux envs.  I am about to try bounds checker but before I do that, I wonder if anybody on this group has any insights, opinions, do's/don'ts regarding the best tool available to do heap analysis.

Borland CodeGuard is an excelent tool for tracking memory leaks and 
other pointer issues, like buffer overflow/underflows, accessing freed 
memory, etc.

It is included with Borland C++ Builder 6, but you should post questions
about C++ Builder in it's newsgroups, which start with 
borland.public.cpp.borlandcppbuilder
