I'm using JetBrains dotPeek as a symbol server to get inside of Visual Studio and debug a language extension, and it works really well, for the most part. But I've got an exception occurring inside of Microsoft.VisualStudio.Shell.Design.dll, and for some reason I can't decompile that, because VS keeps loading a PDB from "Microsoft Public Symbols" instead of going to the dotPeek server, even though I've explicitly unchecked "Microsoft Symbol Server" as a valid location to load from. (Apparently those are different things?)

Is there any way to get VS to never, under any circumstances, load symbol files from Microsoft's servers, no matter how common or "public" the assembly may be?
