BSOD when browsing through a normal legit web page

You uploaded the diag tool itself :) Post it following the Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) Posting Instructions.

The crash dump is not providing much more info, but it shows some network related errors are there.

Code:

fffff880`07d17448  fffff880`01fcf38a NETIO!StreamPermitData+0x13a
fffff880`07d17478  fffff880`01fbcd00 NETIO!QospReferenceContext

NETIO.sys is Network I/O Subsystem driver.

I would suggest you to update ...

• Atheros AR5B93 Wireless Network Adapter driver, from Drivers for Atheros AR5B93 and Windows 7
• Atheros AR8151 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Controller, from Drivers for Atheros AR8151 and Windows 7

Follow Driver Install - Device Manager to install both the drivers.

Scan the system for possible virus infection with the following programs only, not with your installed Kaspersky.

• Anti-rootkit utility TDSSKiller
• Windows Defender Offline

And, Uninstall Kaspersky using Kaspersky Removal Tool, at least as a test. Use Microsoft Security Essentials as your antivirus with windows inbuilt firewall, and free MBAM as the on demand scanner.

Let us know the results.

I am in the middle f the offline scan with Defender Offline. I had to burn the .iso to disk and the run it. What is the difference between On and offline if you don't mind? The Defender offline almost looks identical to MSE GUI., which brings me to my next question: Why did you want me to take out KIS 2013? Aren't I trading down in Security doing this? I know you said as a test, but I like know why I'm doing something. I already run MBAM Pro with protection disabled. The benefit is I get the updates installed for me daily. Lazy I guess. I ran the Rootkit scanner and came up clean and I also changed the adapter drivers. Did you find those problematic or just old. One of the things I have disliked most about computer maintenance is drivers and updating them. Let me know any answers you might have to my queries if you have any and thanks.
This was the first BSOD I have had in a long time. I know any of them aren't god, but do you look for a pattern in these or should you report them as you get them?
I am all done with the things you set out for me to do and I didn't hear back from you about the security questions so I'll go ahead with the uninstall and the install of MSE and you can fill me in later.

NETIO.sys casus s a BSOD, when it is interrupted. The things that may cause the interruption are mainly the backdated network drivers (so I suggested to update those) virus infection (so I suggested those scans) and the monitoring mechanism of an antivirus (so I suggested you to uninstall KIS ... all the third party AVs does it, more or less; rest is your luck).

If it is a stray instance of a BSOD, you may take it as just a hiccup of the NETIO.sys and forget it. But if it tends to continue, you need to take it seriously.

About security, MSE is not any less than KIS, moreover it never causes a BSOD.

Any more question, if there, will be appreciated and answered :)

Great work Arc!

You have to be one of the best and most thorough tekkies I have ever dealt with. Don't lose that ability to help people when they may ask more than you think they should. Computers are hard for people to understand sometimes and when they go bad, lookout, frustration reigns. You helped me without making me feel stupid and I think that is why some people won't ask beyond the first call. I appreciate your help and hopefully if I ever need help on this matter again, I'll find you. Thanx.......

You are welcome Julio :)
You should ask questions ... as I am asking to alter some things which in your believe are correct, and so the conflict of thought arises. It is my duty to guide you through the proper way ... and so I have to answer your questions, so that the conflict of thought may be resolved. Otherwise, you will not be able to understand why you are doing it.

Let us know how the system is running after doing those changes. If there are further issues, we have to check those again. So the feedback is necessary :)

And, questions are welcome, always :)
