Excellent - thanks Rush. In Debug>Enable Guard Malloc, if anyone else is interested.

I am running into an error in some C code I didn't write that is gacking on some calls to free. It blows up with:
malloc: *** error for object 0x31d8090: incorrect checksum for freed object - object was probably modified after being freed, break at szone_error to debug
It's odd, because I can't see how that's possible. I googled for a clue - there seem to be a lot of these kinds of errors out there but nothing on how to go about fixing it.
If someone could throw me a link on how to either "*** set a breakpoint in szone_error to debug", what exactly this error means, or how to find out what "object" is at location 0x31d8090 I would really appreciate it. (this is happening in some C code... an object?) - any links or tips in general are welcome
If I remember correctly, you can enable guardMalloc in the debugger and also setup a breakpoint when an exception is thrown. That would get you started, because you will break when guardMalloc throws.
