Yeah I realised what I wrote after I sent ;-)

I load an array of members, data etc from a ini file (which I'll upgrade to
a database etc later - ini is just easier for the time being because I can
read it). The info is loaded into an array. Basically I use a pointer in the
array for the AThread of the user when they connect.

Sorry I wasn't talking of the actual threads that the indy server
automatically deals with - I was talking of the AThreads for the actual
connections of each user.
