Symbol Server Live on the Internet

Plagued by service packs and hotfixes complicating your debugging? Ever
had a hard time finding symbols for Windows?

Well say goodbye to your windows symbols problems. We have placed a
copy of the Windows symbols (and other products) on a internet symbol
server. See http://www.microsoft.com/ddk/debugging on how to use it.

PS: The downstream store (aka local cache) becomes a little mini symbol
server holding the symbols you pull down. If you work on a team I
recommend creating a share on a machine to hold the store for everyone
on the team. If you all use the same downlevel store then you will
benefit when you can re-use symbols that your teammates have already
pulled down from the net.

Thanks!
Will we be able to pick the symbol files one by one instead of 60MB
downloads?

If you use the symbol server then it will copy symbols on demand from
the internet to the downlevel store. So they will come down 1 by 1 (and
then uncompressed unto the downlevel store.
