If you don’t want to go this road (need some learning), than you have to provide some mechanism to stop running async. requests. You can do this with System.Threading.CancellationTokenSource or with a System.Threading.ManualResetEvent. Both can be used to flag a cancellation to a running task/thread, but the first might be clearer.
Most async. request can be called with a CancellationToken (just use the .Token-Property of the source) as far as I know. If not you can use your own Thread and check with ThrowIfCancellationRequested.
Or you can check on your EndAsync-Handler if the request should be cancelled (e.g.not processed),…
