Default Cause of VxD fatal exception?

Group, I have been unable to find info on the Microsoft
support website or searching the web concerning the
following virtual driver fatal exception shown below:

"A fatal exception 0E has occurred at 0028:xxxxxxxx in VxD
PALE(01) + 00001EF4" (xxxx=various hex codes)

My machine is an AMD K6 approx 900mhz running MS Windows
98 original (not SE). The machine runs fine for awhile
but I'm frequently, though randomly, getting the blue
screen fatal exception mentioned above usually followed by
various 0D fatal exceptions as well. In some cases, I can
continue working but usually have to reboot. It is
possible that this is being caused by residual spyware
trash which I've recently removed via tools such as SpyBot
S&D, Ad-Aware, etc. All spyware remover & antivirus
(Norton) scans are coming back clean but the PALE(01) blue-
screen of deaths keep occurring! Any info, suggestions,
references, or help in resolving this situation would be
greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
