10054s are nothing to worry about. It means the server lost contact
with a client for some reason. It could be that the client
terminated the app or itself crashed. Unless you are getting
numerous frequent occurrences, ignore these.

This is the guardian automatically resurrecting the server
immediately after it has crashed.

this just means that the service (Interbase Guardian) does not
provide a description to the Event log. This entry just tells you
that Guardian has started the IBServer.

If you have suspicions that it is no coincidence then test it.
Switch the antivirus off for a weekend and see if the crashes
continue. If they do, you can rule out Norton. Also check your
antivirus configuration to see how it handles GDB files.
