Something on your FreeBSD box is sending DNS queries to your Windows box and is timing out its query and closing the socket it used to send the query before the Windows box returns its response. Because you have net.inet.udp.log_in_vain enabled, your FreeBSD box logs the arrival of the DNS response packet because there is not a UDP socket listening on the port that the response is being returned to. About all you can do to turn off these messages is to turn off udp.log_in_vain. As a substitute you could log unexpected packets using one of the firewall packages on FreeBSD, which would allow you to ignore packets coming from port 53 on your DNS server.
