Working around a hang like this may not be a good thing. You could simply be masking a real problem in your program, which will come back to get you later.

This is the extent of the AfxLoadLibrary function (from DllInit.cpp)

HINSTANCE AFXAPI AfxLoadLibrary(LPCTSTR lpszModuleName) {
ASSERT(lpszModuleName != NULL);
AfxLockGlobals(CRIT_LOCKSHARED);
HINSTANCE hInstLib = LoadLibrary(lpszModuleName); AfxUnlockGlobals(CRIT_LOCKSHARED);
return hInstLib;
}

As you can see all it does is lock the MFC globals, call LoadLibrary and unlock the MFC globals. If your app is freezing in the lock or unlock call then you have some kind of a problem.
