Don't shout.
It is very unlikely that your Rapidshare link will be followed: Most work filters block rapidshare, and very view of us will download an unknown RAR file anyway. Instead, post relevant code fragments in your original question, using the "code block" widget to preserve the formatting.

If there's only a single thread what is there to synchronize? Or do you mean a single thread in addition to the main thread? Also, as "OriginalGriff" mentioned, please post code fragments. The question is just more likely to be answered then.

If you write MFC code, I think the simplest way is to use AfxBeginThread to create your work thread, if you want to both reading and writing data to a same port, you can use <pre lang="C++">CCriticalSection</pre>
, CEvent, CMutex or <pre lang="C++">CSemaphore</pre>
if you choose CEvent, you can use <pre lang="C++">WaitForSingleObject</pre>
to wait your CEvent object
