If "connection closed by foreign host" or something is what you're after, just packetfilter it. All you have to really block is SYNs against port 80. Of course if you really want to get obtuse and you don't mind emulating a SYN attack against yourself, you could block their ACK instead. (Why on earth would you do that? Oh, I don't know. Because it's easier than programming in a timer so that they only get one packet back every 30 seconds or so.. preferably an out of sequence one.).
