I see Norton 360 installed and your crashes point to network related problems. There may be a correlation. I would recommend first to uninstall Norton 360 using the Norton Removal Tool. Then, download a fresh copy of Norton 360 and install it fresh. See if that resolves the problem; your Norton product may be corrupted.

If that does not work, use the Norton Removal Tool to remove Norton 360 again and replace it with Microsoft Security Essentials - Free Antivirus for Windows to test.

Also, if you are using the Norton 360 registry cleaner option, please stop.

• Many of us on the forums actually do not recommend automated optimization tools for Windows 7. Windows 7 does a much better job of handling its own optimization than its predecessors did. We especially do not recommend registry cleaning as an "optimization" step because automated registry cleaning causes more harm to the registry than it actually repairs.
  
  In the future, if you need help optimizing Windows 7, please post a thread in Performance & Maintenance - Windows 7 Forums or follow the tutorial enclosed in that forum to http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorial...ws-7-a.html?filter[2]=Performance Maintenance.
