Of course.  Everything shares the CPU.

Again, I have to ask what your thread and timer are actually doing.  If youe
timer is doing something that is CPU-intense and not yielding control back
to the rest of the system periodically, then yes, it is conceivable for your
timer to block your worker thread.  Which OS are you using for this?  Do you
know what the overall CPU usage is during the blockage?  If you're using
WinNT/2K/XP, you can view the usage via the Task Manager.
