How to use an AppDomain to limit a static class' scope for thread-safe use?

Question

I have been bitten by a poorly architected solution. It is not thread safe!

I have several shared classes and members in the solution, and during development all

Using app domains you could do something like this:

public class Loader
{

    private string connectionString;
    private string fileName;
    private Stream stream;
    private DataFile dataFile;

    public Loader(Stream stream, string fileName, string connectionString)
    {
        this.connectionString = connectionString;
        this.fileName = fileName;
        this.stream = stream;
    }  

    public void Process()
    {
        //*****  Create AppDomain HERE *****
        string threadID = Thread.CurrentThread.ManagedThreadId.ToString();
        AppDomain appDomain = AppDomain.CreateDomain(threadID);

        DataFile dataFile = 
            (DataFile) appDomain.CreateInstanceAndUnwrap(
                        "", 
                        "DataFile", 
                        true, 
                        BindingFlags.Default,
                        null,
                        new object[] 
                        { 
                            aredstream, 
                            filename, 
                            connectionString 
                        },
                        null,
                        null,
                        null);
        dataFile.ParseFile();
        dataFile.Save();

        appDomain.Unload(threadID);       
    }
}
