Lowering the question's severity to normal.
Comment 4 Darin Wright CLA 2005-11-08 11:14:00 EST 
The short explanation of a contended monitor is a lock that is required by two 
or more threads at once - i.e. the lock is in contention because it is a 
single resource required by more than one consumer simaltaneously. 

Marking as works for me.
