PC>How do I kill a thread that was started with _beginthread()?

   The best way to do this is have the thread execute "return".  Have a
variable which stores a boolean value determining when a thread should
return or use a semaphore.  When another thread says it's time to go the
thread should exit voluntarily.  Killing threads is a bad practise and will
make it difficult to enhance the program later on (you'll have to use
critical sections etc to avoid concurrancy problems and you'll still get
bitten by resource allocation problems).
