Aborting threads

To make threads end when the application exits you can make them
background threads ( by setting the 'IsBackground' property to true).

You can end treads by calling the Thread.Abort() functions. Make sure
you read the docs on how to properly handle the ThreadAbortException
which may occur at any point in the code the thread is running.

You can also have your threads check some sort of flag at a regular
interval to determine if they should continue or end.

I'm not sure how you should hanvle the COM thread.
