I have Visual Studio 2005 set up to use Microsoft's symbol servers. I also have UltraMon installed, which injects a hook DLL into every process. Whenever I start debugging my MFC application, Visual Studio says:
"Loading symbols for C:\Program Files\UltraMon\RTSUltraMonHookX32.dll..."
for anything from the blink of an eye to several tens of seconds. It's never going to find those symbols… Can I tell it not to bother looking?
(I tried creating an empty RTSUltraMonHookX32.pdb
file, but Visual Studio sees that it's not good and carries on looking.)

You can't do this in a very fine grained fashion but you can disable automatic symbol loading and then manually choose the symbols to load via the Modules window (Debug -> Windows -> Modules).
