No.  See <http://www.live.com/liveMedia/faq.html#threads>  However, 
if all of the interaction with the "LIVE.COM Streaming Media" code 
occurs within one thread, then there won't be a problem.

If you're running Linux, then I suggest that you run 
"valgrind".  I've found that it's good for finding the cause of 
crashes like this.
