Random frequent crashes in OS X Mavericks 10.9.1

After installing the newest version of OS X Mavericks 10.9.1 last night on my MacBook Pro (which was previously running Snow Leopard 10.6.8), I've had about 6 panics, causing my Mac to shutdown and reboot in the middle of whatever I'm doing. The MacBook Pro is a 15-inch, mid-2010 model with a 2.66 GHz Intel Core i7 Processor and 4GB 1067 MHz DDR3 Memory. I'm trying to figure out from the crash report if there's anything in particular causing the panics. Anyone see anything strange that could be causing this?


This is the crash report:

Boot into safe mode (restart holding down SHIFT key). If no KP, then some 3rd-party thing is messing things up. If KP, then most likely hardware related. Run the Apple Hardware Test suite, extended tests at least twice, followed by Rember. See

I don't see anything in the KP that indicates a 3-rd party component. Create a new admin user account, restart, and see if you can log into it. If so, then my only suggestion is to log back into the original account, using safe mode, open that user's /Libarary/Preferences folder, move all non-Apple plist files, including those in the ByHosts subfolder, to a newly created one on Desktop, restart normally, and see if that works. If so, you can reset preferences for your apps or you can put some of the moved ones back in, restart, and repeat until you identify the culprit(s).
