The log is incomplete. Either you made an error with your copy/paste or the log has been intentionally edited as there are several areas which are not complete. The running processes which would show at the top of the log are not there so there is no way to make any determination of possible causes.
Please follow the steps given in our Read Me sticky and post back with the requested logs.

Personally, I would also check the FaceBook and MySpace entries too, but lets see what happens when fixing the others first.

I'm not sure this will fix your problem though. You may be looking a a heat issue. Does it shut down suddenly, or as if you clicked the shutdown button?
Are you using the notebook on a hard surface, or soft?
Are the vents unobstructed? Fan running? Fast or slow?

It may have nothing to do with virus/malware. Then again, it's a possibility that virus/malware are forcing the computer to shutdown. A common way of malware/viruses doing this is through a .BAT file. Using the systemfiles, it shuts the computer down. With that being said, you could do this with any language like Assembly, C, C++, Java, C#, even VB.NET. But, it may not be a virus/malware problem.

Firstly, are you using the correct charger for your laptop? Weird question, yes, however if you have had a broken charger in the past and I don't know, you used a charger from a Acer netbook because it charged your main laptop there may not be enough power flowing through to your laptop, causing it to shutdown. This is a possibility, unless your using a charger designed for your laptop/the charger you got when you bought it. Netbooks need less power than laptops. Laptops need more power because of the better performance.

Secondly, when you boot up after it restarting or shutting down unexpectly, does Windows return a popup to you about a "unexpected shutdown"? If so, it may be due to a Windows crash, application or failure to update something.

Thirdly, it may not be anything software related at all. It could be a hardware issue. In the past I have had laptops which get a hardware issue, causing the laptop to randomly shutdown no matter to what im doing. I could be listening to music, working in Photoshop/programming or just chatting to friends on Skype. Are your USB ports working properly? Sometimes if they aren't fully working and you plug something into them, the computer will instantly shutdown. I've had this before, especially if you plug a USB in the wrong way. This may also cause a break of the USB port. Is your motherboard damaged? Another reason to why your laptop may be shutting down randomly may be because of a hardware issue with the BIOS. Open up your laptop and check for any connection problems, or breaks in the motherboard.

Hope I helped!
