[cut the description that doesn't talk about QThread]

Because clearly something is different.

You think you have a threading problem and the warning you get is a sure sign 
of that. Yet your description does not mention QThread, or even threads, at 
all. How do you want us to help you solve your problem related to threads?

Some sample code would be most welcome for us to understand what's going on.

In the meantime:
1) do NOT create slots in a class derived from QThread. Just don't. I won't 
help you if you post code that does that. If you have that, you'll need to fix 
it before posting the code.

2) QTcpSocket and QTcpServer do not require threads to work. So please post 
your reasoning for using threads along with your code.

3) make sure you understand how automatic connections work in Qt and which 
thread each object in your code actually lives in (i.e., which thread the 
slots will be called in).
