    It is rather difficult to diagnose hangs over the newsgroup, so you may be
    better off just calling PSS.

    But a few questions:
    1. Does is stay hung forever?
    2. You said that it affects all of your projects. Did you try both native
    debugging and managed (.NET) debugging?
    3. Why hung, does it use any CPU?
    4. Does it hang when you bring up the processes dialog (Debug->Processes)
    5. This is VS.NET 2003?
