I believe Merlyn once said that (roughly), the answer to the question of forking is "don't".
Fork works, especially if on *nix. It's simple. If on a Windows system, fork emulation w/ ActiveState is still better than threading. If something "must" be threaded, it can also usually be written with subprocesses. GUI apps must be threaded to not lose responsiveness when doing slow things , that's about it.
