Help:

The Win32 API does not provide a way to get the thread handle from the
thread identifier. <snip> Instead, you must request the handle from
the thread creator or the thread itself. 
A thread can use the GetCurrentThread function to retrieve a pseudo
handle to its own thread object. This pseudo handle is valid only for
the calling process; it cannot be inherited or duplicated for use by
other processes. To get the real handle to the thread, given a pseudo
handle, use the DuplicateHandle function.
