Thanks for the help Boris However I'm still not done yet. I tried to download the symbols and source from the Mozilla symbol server using Visual Studio 2005 according to that tutorial. It didn't work.
Then I tried to download them using symchk using this command: symchk.exe /r %GRE_HOME% /s SRV*c:\debug_symbols_cache*http://symbols.mozilla.org/firefox This gave me a lot of mismatched or not found errors. Then I tried: symchk.exe /r "c:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\*" /s SRV*c:\debug_symbols_cache*http://symbols.mozilla.org/firefox This worked but now I have the debug symbols for Firefox and not for xulrunner-1.9.0.4 and that doesn't help me much. Any idea on how I might get the correct files?

You should be able to do that.
