This is a well-known idea. Ed's "mate-killer" idea is new, AFAIK.

Bounds Checker is an excellent program. It is neither free nor cheap, but
is easy to use and well-integrated with Visual C++. I highly recommend it.

There are free libraries and tools that can do some of the same things,
but the ones I've seen are not easy to use, and some conflict with VC++
libraries and headers.
