Answer 1

A few steps to try:

1. Debug->Step Into (this will ensure you stop right after you start)
2. Debug->Windows->Modules
3. Look for your foo.exe on the list.
4. Check Symbol Status. Does it say it is loaded?
5. If not, go to the path and ensure that: a) there is a file called foo.pdb there b) the timestamp on foo.pdb matches foo.exe (or is really close)
