You can always try uninstalling those updates and if that fix it, try installing them one by one.

Boozad, I was finally able to attempt a clean start up. Unfortunately, the problem still persisted.
There are no dump files in the logs to analyse so no help there. Can you ensure you're set to record small memory dumps by following the steps below, and do not run CCleaner as it will erase any dump files.
- Open Advanced System Settings
- Click on Settings in Startup & Recovery
- Make sure both boxes indicated below are checked
- In the dropdown box ensure you're set to record Small Memory Dumps
If you do receive any more BSODs post up the new logs.
Uninstall Driver Updater, you're much better off managing drivers yourself, letting software update drivers is not the best idea.
Also try cleaning up the Startup, all you really need starting with Windows is your AV. You can remove the highlighted programs below from Startup and run them only when needed.

I ran Ccleaner earlier today Should I still upload a new log?
I haven't gotten any BSOD today, but my computer is still responding slower than it used to before all that stuff happened. I'll turn off those highlighted things on startup. Thanks for the suggestion! EDIT: Startup via msconfig right? I didn't fine any of those highlighted programs on the list except for Akamai. Am I looking in the wrong place?
Why is it bad for Driver Updater to update your drivers for you? When and how often should you check for driver updates if you do it manually?
Yeah msconfig would be the place. To be honest some of that stuff may be embedded by the manufacturer hence not showing in msconfig, not a lot you can do about that to be honest. Akamai you can uncheck, I found that to be a resource hog and it only gets used when needed.
As for drivers, you only really need to update them if and when they become problematic. Some drivers very rarely get updated as they just don't need it. The exception being graphics drivers, if you have a dedicated GPU then you tend to update frequently.
Thanks for all your help! I'm gonna go ahead and mark this as solved. You da real MVP.
Are all things good now? Hopefully they are, fingers crossed. If you're still having issues be sure to let us know.
