When running an application that calls LogonUser() from multiple threads,
the second call to LogonUser may cause the application to hang. This occurs
when the user context under which the application is running does not have
the SE_TCB_NAME privilege.
NOTE: To set this privilege for a user, you can grant the user the advanced
user right to "Act as part of the operating system," in User Manager under
User Rights Policy.
