#28: Unclear error message when I/O thread interrupted

Lately I've been seeing a lot of "The IO Thread was interrupted" error
message which made me think. I know what this means but I'm a java
programmer. This is an inappropriate message for a typical end user who
will likely not know what either "IO", "thread" or even "interrupt" means
in this context. Furthermore, it doesn't tell me which file had the
problem.
This message should be changed to something like "filename could not be
uploaded because servername closed the connection" or something like that.
You can probably do better than that, but you get the idea. Test out the
error message on a few non-programmer friends and see if they understand
it.
