CFileDialog Thread
I am using performance monitor to watch my applications thread count and I have noticed something strange:
When I create a CFileDialog object a new thread is spawned, but when this object is destroyed the thread stays. At first I created the object on the stack, then switched to the heap so I could handle (de)allocation manually. Neither approach seem to make a difference.
Any ideas as to why this is happening?
Since I have no handle to the thread, how can I kill it?

It is rather a question, not an answer, but which performance monitor are you using ? I am looking for one too.

Subsequent calls do not create additional threads, no.
The viewer being used is perfmon.exe
<<dont happern on any of my applications that use a CFileDialog, i just checked two>>
Perhaps this is just an NT thing? What O/S are you on?

If my theory is correct, the only way to know might be to open an app that uses CFileDialog directly after booting the system.
