Which version of visual basic? If it's using the .net framework 2.0 (vs 2005) then you can just use a background worker if it is .net framework 1 or 1.1 then you can use the following code.
Dim Thread as Threading.Thread
Thread = New Threading.Thread(AddressOf [ThreadHandler])
Thread.Name = "Alerts Thread"
Thread.Start()
where [ThreadHander] is the sub where the code you want to run is. be careful of synchlocks
