Well, I've been looking at the problem a little more carefully, and it is definitely a race condition, however you can avoid it quite simply.  First a bit of code that demonstrates the problem more fully.   

        private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            backgroundWorker1 = new BackgroundWorker();
            backgroundWorker1.WorkerReportsProgress = true;
            backgroundWorker1.DoWork += DoWork;
            backgroundWorker1.ProgressChanged += ProgressChanged;
            backgroundWorker1.RunWorkerAsync();
        }

        private void DoWork(object sender, DoWorkEventArgs e)
        {
            // You need to call this in an invoke as you 
            // are writing back to the UI thread
            BeginInvoke(new MethodInvoker(WriteHelloToTextBox));
        }

        private void WriteHelloToTextBox()
        {
            textBox1.Text = "Hello";
            Thread.Sleep(100);
            backgroundWorker1.ReportProgress(100);
            
        }

        private void ProgressChanged(object sender, ProgressChangedEventArgs e)
        {
            progressBar1.Value = e.ProgressPercentage;
        }

The problem stems from the fact that DoWork is run in a separate thread, so if you have to write to the GUI then you have to marshal it via Invoke.  So naturally in my eagerness to improve performance I use BeginInvoke, which simply spawns a thread and then continues.  The spawned thread then sleeps for a bit (just to make the race condition more apparent - even without the sleep this code will occasionally fail) writes to a textbox and then reports progress.  By the time the ReportProgress call is marshaled to the right thread, the thread has completed as DoWork will have finished.  The solution is simple, never use BeginInvoke (or indeed spawning a new thread by any other means) from the DoWork handler, so to fix the code above, just change BeginInvoke to Invoke - it works every time now, and is certainly better than my cludgy sleep I was using earlier  :-)

Even in the most sexually liberated and self-satisfied of nations, many people still yearn to burn more, to feel ready for bedding no matter what the clock says and to desire their partner of 23 years as much as they did when their love was brand new.
The market is saturated with books on how to revive a flagging libido or spice up monotonous sex, and sex therapists say “lack of desire” is one of the most common complaints they hear from patients, particularly women.
