Your listbox and richtextbox accesses must run on the UI thread. The easiest way to do it is like this.

                                     Me.Invoke(Sub()
                                                   ListBox1.Items.Clear()
                                                   ListBox1.Items.AddRange(Split(clientdecode, vbLf))
                                                   RichTextBox1.SelectionStart() = RichTextBox1.TextLength
                                                   RichTextBox1.ScrollToCaret()
                                               End Sub)
