<p>Both methods can terminate a thread.  The difference is that they raise difference exception, interrupt can use goto to save its life, abort can not use goto to save its life, and abort can pass some information into the running thread by calling Abort(object stateInfo). The running thread can access this object by ThreadAbortException.ExceptionState .
