My experience with the other Windows option, BoundsChecker, is similarly negative and I haven't bothered upgrading for a couple of versions (so can only use it with VC++ 6). The original developer, NuMega, were great but they were absorbed into Compuware which seems to see it more as a source of consulting income than as a product. I'm fairly experienced with BoundsChecker and related programs (like their profiler) so could run it over a test suite if a license was provided. A demonstration license can probably not be installed on my machine due to earlier installs.
