How to find components (e.g. shell extensions) causing memory leaks

I wrote a guide which, while aimed at Directory Opus users, might be useful to others as well, so figured I'd mentioning it here:

Opus News Blog: New guide: How to find components causing memory leaks

When the SysInternals VMMap tool was first released it seemed neat but only useful in rare situations. Recently it has gained the ability to track memory allocations and show stack traces for them and that has made it very useful indeed. That's what the guide is about.
