Re: this->EndDialog hangs with thread

I changed my code and had a client test it. He still gets a hang on close
and only used the IRC thread.

The only thing I reference inside my thread now is :
 CTest1Dlg *dlg=(CTest1Dlg*) AfxGetApp()->GetMainWnd();

Is this bad to do as well?

which I use for getting the Socket Information that I declared in the
header.
 send(dlg->clisock,User,User.GetLength(),0); //these send irc connect
information to irc server
 send(dlg->clisock,Nick,Nick.GetLength(),0);
 send(dlg->clisock,Join,Join.GetLength(),0);

And I do some receives as well.

 while(s!=SOCKET_ERROR && dlg->ee!=0)
 {

  if (ioctlsocket(s, FIONREAD, &arg) != 0) {
    inputline = ReceiveLine(dlg->clisock); //ReceiveLine is a custom
function I wrote that gets a line of text from input
  }

//switch/case results of inputline
}

All of my output to dialog controls are done through messages:
