Which OS do you have?
AIX?
There is not here to go on.
Do you have a crash dump to analyze?
logs detailing why the system crashes i.e. kernel panic, etc.?

File Comment this is the dump file that was created when my pc crashed.

 
To answer your question, no this has not happened before and I have a cisco anyconnect set up for another network.
The error is because of  fw.sys %ssytemroot%\system32\fw.sys
http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/blue_screen_view.html

Do you have another VPN client installed i.e. from checkpoint which might be where fw.sys came from?

If you have a client installed, I would think you would only need to get the policy for the new connection versus trying to install a new client all together.
Well there are others that do what I do and had previous anyconnect connections.  The install worked for them, but they are running windows 7.  I tried to use my client to connect to the network I already had established but it failed saying it cannot connect to the secured gateway.  I do not see how I can add another connection to the client.  It seems to be only for the one network
Are you installing the new any connect client while the VPN is connected to the other network?
Within the any connect VPN client that you have, do you have an option to add a policy?

Do you have some firewall application on the workstation?
can not tell from what you've posted what is going on and what might be causing this issue.
I have several different vpn softwares which are required.  I was not connected to another network.  It looks like I have picked up a virus.  I am running malwarebytes now to try and clean that up.  I will let you know if that resolves the issues.   I want to thank you for your assistance so far!
Viruses have been cleaned but my pc still crashes during the install process.  It actually got to the restarting services point when it crashed.
This is no longer an issue.  Thanks to everyone!
