6 = ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE

You are setting the thread's FreeOnTerminate property to true.  You
can't use WaitFor() and FreeOnTerminate together.  That is a bug that
was introduced in BCB 6.  If you want to use WaitFor(), then leave
FreeOnTerminate set to its default value of false and then delete the
thread yourself after WaitFor() exits, ie:

    if( thClntSckt )
    {
        thClntSckt->Terminate();
        thClntSckt->WaitFor();
        delete thClntSckt; // <-- add this
        thClntSckt = NULL;
        return;
    }

    {
        thClntSckt = new ThClientSocket(true);
        // thClntSckt->FreeOnTerminate = true; // <-- Get rid of this
        thClntSckt->IPAddress = EditHost->Text;
        thClntSckt->Port = EditPort->Text.ToIntDef(0);
        thClntSckt->Resume();
      }
