Don't load stuff, particularly stuff with XS elements, prior to creating threads that do not use that stuff. Specifically, loading (useing) Tk; means that pats of it will be loaded into multiple threads regardless that it is not used in them all. Thins is a recipe for problems.
Don't port code, especially threaded code) to Windows ME first. Use NT/2K/XP and then backport to ME (if all your attempts to avoid doing so fail).
