Okay, I was thinkign the 'two at once' was maybe just a coincedence, but
if you are seeing it, it kinda puts some weight behind it ...

What is the change that its 'threads' related?  I updated my system to the

I no nothing about C++ programming though, so debugging it for me is
pretty much impossible :(
