macbook pro mid-2012 crashing randomly mavericks

So, I've had this macbook pro for a good while, and after installing mavericks, there weren't any real problems. However, after a few months, the macbook kept crashing at random, it wouldn't matter the app that was running, but every few days, it would just turn off and restart, showing an error report after logging back in. This can get extremely annoying. Here is the latest crash report if it helps:

Remove "PdaNet" and see whether the panics stop.

Any third-party software that doesn't install from the App Store or by drag-and-drop into the Applications folder, and uninstall by drag-and-drop to the Trash, is a system modification.

Whenever you remove system modifications, they must be removed completely, and the only way to do that is to use the uninstallation tool, if any, provided by the developers, or to follow their instructions. If the software has been incompletely removed, you may have to re-download or even reinstall it in order to finish the job.

I never install system modifications myself, and except as stated in this comment, I don't know how to uninstall them. You'll have to do your own research to find that information.

Here are some general guidelines to get you started. Suppose you want to remove something called “BrickMyMac” (a hypothetical example.) First, consult the product's Help menu, if there is one, for instructions. Finding none there, look on the developer's website, say www.brickmymac.com. (That may not be the actual name of the site; if necessary, search the Web for the product name.) If you don’t find anything on the website or in your search, contact the developer. While you're waiting for a response, download BrickMyMac.dmg and open it. There may be an application in there such as “Uninstall BrickMyMac.” If not, open “BrickMyMac.pkg” and look for an Uninstall button. The uninstaller might also be accessed by clicking the Customize button, if there is one.

Back up all data before making any changes.

You will generally have to restart the computer in order to complete an uninstallation. Until you do that, there may be no effect, or unpredictable effects.

If you can’t remove software in any other way, you’ll have to erase and install OS X. Never install any third-party software unless you're sure you know how to uninstall it; otherwise you may create problems that are very hard to solve.

Trying to remove complex system modifications by hunting for files by name often will not work and may make the problem worse. The same goes for "utilities" such as "AppCleaner" and the like that purport to remove software.

You have installed RAM with the incorrect specifications. The correct specifications for a 9.2 model identifier MBP are: 204-pin PC3-12800 (1600 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM. Installed, you have: 204-pin PC3-8500 (1066 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM, last used in 2010 MBPs.


Install the original RAM and see if the kernel panics abate. If you want to install additional RAM, OWC and Crucial are the best sources for Mac compatible RAM.


Ciao.
