title: Can I safely rely on IsBackground in Threads when the application terminates?
body: <p>I'm running some background threads in the GUI. Currently I'm implementing a personal Thread cancellation code but there is IsBackground property in threads and according MSDN they'll cancel themselves.</p>
  
  <p>I know that it's going to Thread.Abort() which is nasty but there is nothing going in this background threads that I need to keep a proper state or requires proper clean-up.</p>
  
  <p>I'm trying to avoid any crashes if the user just closes down the application in the middle of a background thread. Since multi-threading scenarios are quite hard to test I'd like to get your opinion on the subject.</p>
  
  <p>Basically, instead of rolling my own code shall I just set IsBackground = True and forget about the rest?</p>
