Calling CreateThread() will cause the DllMain() functions of all loaded
DLLs to be called, with a reason indicating thread-attach. What, if
anything, are those two DLLs doing in DllMain()?

Jim,
They are not trying for the same resource. The first two threads
are created without any problem. Only when I am trying to create the third
thread it is hanging. The system hangs at the call of CreateThread( ).
