Default Windows shuts down when removing external device

I am using a Vista 64-bit platform on a desktop. Recently, when I
right-click on the icon to Remove Hardware Safely in order to remove an
external flash drive, it tells me that the device can be safely removed from
the computer, but then the computer immediately goes into a reboot mode.

In the Event Viewer under Custom Views/Administrative Events, I show an Http
event (Event ID = 15016), and WMI error (Event ID = 10).

This just started happening today.
