This timeout is almost always related to one of 2 things.

Slow or stopped internet.

or

rtorrent has stopped.

try reloading the page.
If it reloads, and you see this timeout a lot, then lower your timeout settings 
in
"settings"

"mod_auth",

Removing mod_auth is not really a fix.. See Issue 119 (
http://code.google.com/p/rutorrent/issues/detail?id=119 ) for a way to deal 
with this
problem.
