I receive error emails from my website whenever an exception occurs. I am getting this error:

The remote host closed the connection. The error code is 0x800704CD

and don't know why. I get about 30 a day. I can't reproduce the error either so can't track down the issue.

Website is ASP.NET 2 running on IIS7.

Stack trace:

I get this one all the time. It means that the user started to download a file, and then it either failed, or they cancelled it.

To reproduce the exception try do this yourself - however I'm unaware of any ways to prevent it (except for handling this specific exception only).

You need to decide what the best way forward is depending on your app.
