Hello and welcome to Techspot.

Your problem would appear to be caused by the Zonealarm firewall, all your minidumps crash at vsdatant.sys.

Download the free Sygate firewall from HERE

Disconnect from the internet, and uninstall Zonealarm. Reboot your system, and install the Sygate firewall. Reboot your system again, and reconnect to the internet.

Regards Howard

I think it`s probably some kind of incompatibility issue.

Are you running the latest version of Zonealarm?

Check on the Zonelabs website for any updates. http://www.zonelabs.com/store/content/home.jsp

I know one of my friends had the same problem using his older version. He is now using the current version, and has had no problems since.
