Hi Cindy,

IF assume that RB have TRUE preemptive threads...
And second socket start something before first have finish.
Then may be.

On the other hand, I think REALbasic is CARBON application,
And they emulate preemptive threads.
Must be asked REAL.

Do you use one thread per socket model ?
I think it will be good idea use semaphore on Valentina calls.
