+ This is a normal message and nothing to be alarmed about. It simply
+ means that the client cancelled the connection before it had been
+ completely set up - such as by the end-user pressing the "Stop"
+ button. People's patience being what it is, sites with response-time
+ problems or slow network links may experiences this more than
+ high-capacity ones or those with large pipes to the network.
