Thread-blocking (was: socket.gethostbyname() thread-safe?)

I could track down the problem a little bit more: The threads are
blocking if the user aborts the loading of the web page (using the
SocketServer.ThreadingMixIn). In this case an IOError exception is
raised which never reaches the appropriate handler thread. The
IOError exceptions show up after I stop my main thread. Any
solution?

Ciao, Michael.
