Try Fortify which can be found on SimTel as msdos/c/fortify.zip. I use
it and it works very well. This is version 1.0. Version 2.0 is in beta.
From the file 'READ.ME' of version 1.0:
Short: C/C++ memory tracker and protector R1.0
Uploader: sbullen AT ozemail DOT com DOT au (Simon P. Bullen)
Author: sbullen AT ozemail DOT com DOT au (Simon P. Bullen)
Type: dev/c
Fortify is a fortified memory allocation shell for C and C++. It is capable
of detecting memory leaks, writes beyond and before memory blocks, and
breaks software that relies on the state of uninitialized memory, and
software that uses memory after it's been freed.
