STOP: 0x000000FA
Description
Possibly the http.sys driver is damaged or has a bug.
Some older versions of Windows may show the description as "HTTP_DRIVER_CORRUPTED".
This is a fatal Windows error, typically called a Stop message, Bug Check, or more commonly the Blue Screen of Death (BSoD). The system is in a forced reboot state. Any unsaved work is likely lost.
Sample Screen
A problem has been detected and Windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer.
The HTTP kernel driver (http.sys) reached a corrupted state and can not recover. This means that the HTTP Module detected that its private data is corrupted. This usually results in eventual corruption of the thread pool and an access violation.
Technical Information:
*** STOP: 0x000000FA

Using an Anti-Virus product with the latest pattern files, scan the system for viruses and malware. Often this is called a deep-scan where it looks at every file in the system.
Several software products that handle the detection and removal of Viruses and Malware include Avanquest's Fix-It Utilities Professional and SystemSuite Professional. Other commonly available Anti-virus products are available from Computer Associates, F-Secure, Kaspersky Labs, McAfee, Sophos, Symantec, Trend Micro and others.

Install the latest Windows software updates. Don't forget to check for non-critical updates too!
To manually get updates, open Internet Explorer (you can't use a non-Microsoft browser for updates).
For IE 8 and later: Click on Safety, then Windows Update. Follow the instructions.
For IE 7 and older: Click on Tools, then Windows Update. Follow the instructions.
The HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol) kernel driver, Http.sys, is in a corrupted state and cannot recover. A work item is invalid. This will eventually result in thread pool corruption and an access violation.
After the Stop code will be 4 hex values: {Parameter 1, Parameter 2, Parameter 3, Parameter 4}.
Parameter 1 is set to 1.
Parameter 2 specifies the address of work item.
Parameter 3 specifies the name of the file that contains the work item check.
Parameter 4 specifies the line number of the work item check within the file.
While BSoD fatal stop errors are identified by Microsoft Windows, they are often caused by
non-Microsoft applications, drivers and hardware issues.
