title: Runtime debugging not working.
body: <p>just recently my Visual Studio 2010 and 2008 Professional have stopped catching runtime errors. I'm not sure if a setting within these IDEs were configured wrong or if it is a firewall problem (my OS is Windows 7 and the firewall is turned off). For instance this code should result in a runtime error in visual studio:</p>
  
  <pre><code>XmlDocument doc = null;
  XmlElement element = doc.getElementByID("element");
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>If i place a breakpoint after this code it is not reached, however the breakpoint is successfully triggering before this code sample is executed. My C# application appears fine, but all code that was executed after the error is nonexistent.</p>
  
  <p>I would appreciate it if any could help me solve this issue.</p>
