I received this error message, how do I understand it?

17: 36: 12: ERROR: Receive error: 10053: An existing connection was software controlled
17: 36: 12: ERROR: canceled by the host computer.

Without the context that the error occurred in, hard to say. If it coincides with either the Web Control or FAHViewer being closed, that error may just indicate the internal network connection did not close properly.

This is the log, before and after the error message appears...

Ah you can ignore that message. Folding just continues without issue
