Debugging Classic ASP causes Visual Studio 2008 to crash - how can I fix this?

Question

I'm debugging classic asp code using VS 2008 sp1 on windows 7. Everything works great, I attach to the process and can debug. However, If I stop debugging visual studio will crash.

I read the recycling the app pool would help, but it has not helped me end a debugging session with out crashing. I have hunted through Google and stack overflow for a solution, but so far I've mainly found complaints.

Has anyone figured this out?

This QFE fixes three complete separate issues in the VS2008 SP1 Debugger:

• Debugger can hang the IDE after setting a breakpoint when working with a large C++ project
• Breakpoints do not bind correctly when an MSIL file is built containing .line directives
• VS crashes when debugging a classic ASP web and debugging is stopped.
