You connected to the sever and left the connection open.  It is about to be
closed by the server because your client is blocking that server resource
for too long without doing anything (not nice).  So the server you are
connected to has to tell your client that the connection will be terminated.
ZoneAlarm just picks this up and generates a false message.  Report it as a
bug to the developers of ZoneAlarm.  It should not report such things
because they are simply the proper way to end a connection that was left
open.
