impersonate in new thread

My ASP.NET application sets up impersonate in the config file:

<identity impersonate="true" userName="m1\aspuser" password="xyz" /
Later, within my application, I create a thread:

x= New processor
Dim ts As New ThreadStart(AddressOf x.start)
Dim thread As New Thread(ts)
thread.Start()

I suspect this thread does not have the same security context as the
thread that started it (the ASP.NET thread). How do I set up this
thread to have the same security context as the main thread?

I hope you're also aware that your new thread may continue execution after
the request has completed? This means that it should not reference any part
of the page.
