Threads?

I have no solid idea what a thread is, but i thought it was like another program running at the same time. IE freecell and winamp are running at the same time. both are in infinite loops (until they quit) but they both work because the processor looks at one program and then the other -- they are independant. I think a multi threaded program has two peices running independantly of eachother, but the look at eachothers stuff, so that a time dependant communication device or sound device is not screwed over by other processes. of course, i am prolly way off here. THis sounds like a job for MEGA ROBOT DUDE!
