I've got litterally thousands of them in my httperr.log file. I've heard
they are safe to ignore is that true?

According to Microsoft, that simply means "The connection was closed because
there was not activity and the Timer_ConnectionIdle timer expired."

Reference:
ConnectionTimeout Metabase Propery (IIS 6.0)

And from an MSDN
blog(http://blogs.msdn.com/webtransports/archive/2004/07/15/184336.aspx):
"Timer_ConnectionIdle, happens in normal HTTP protocol usage, where the
client decides not to disconnect from the server because there is a good
chance that it will have another request for the server either in the process
of loading a page or because a client will probably click a link on a web
page that will go back to the same server. By default the server will close
the connection and reclaim those resources after 2 minutes of inactivity.
This is nothing to worry about, it's just an informational type of entry."
