Thread was being aborted

I am getting error like 

System.Threading.ThreadAbortException: Thread was being aborted.

  at System.String.wstrcpy(Char* dmem, Char* smem, Int32 charCount)

  at System.String.FillStringChecked(String dest, Int32 destPos, String src)

  at System.String.Concat(String str0, String str1)

  at reporterror.Page_Load(Object sender, EventArgs e)

Can anyone help to know why this error comes? Why Thread was being aborted error comes?

Not sure if this is why you are seeing this, but in ASP.NET if you redirect out of a catch block you will get Thread was being aborted

catch (Exception ex)
{
   //This will throw  "Thread was being aborted"
   response.redirect("~\default.aspx");
}

When a call is made to the Abort method to destroy a thread, the common language runtime throws a ThreadAbortException. ThreadAbortException is a special exception that can be caught, but it will automatically be raised again at the end of the catch block.

In other words wstrcpy called Thread.Abort()

EDIT: Or main thread called Abort() on Thread that Page_Load() was running on.
