problems while debugger is attached

I have a strange bug, where if I'm running the program without the  
debugger attached (CTRL-F5 in VS), the program would run correctly both in  
debug and release builds. But when I run the program with F5, so the  
debugger is attached, then it blocks on a function call and never returns.  
If I put a breakpoint before this call, and step through it, then  
everything seems to work fine, and the function returns as expected..

Could this be a deadlocking problem? Any ideas why attaching a debugger  
makes any difference? And hints on how to debug this?

Thanks,



Andras
