Hello everyone,
I have trawled the depths of the Internet, scoured the innermost reaches of the Usenet, and finally I arrive, beaten and bruised, at the steps to the Linux kernel mailing list, to seek advice from the penguins themselves. I humbly prostrate myself .. :)
My first request: Please CC me directly on replies as I am not subscribed to the list.
Now to the meat of it; I have been experiencing a lot of trouble with system freezes; but these are not crippling freezes in the sense that they come back after a few seconds. They are always accompanied by the following log in /var/log/messages:

Now, I know what you're thinking, this problem has been reported a lot already. But, as I mentioned I have done a lot of searching online looking for answers. There are a number of posts which seem like related problems, especially if you search Google for "Exception emask". Most of these suggest a work-around of putting the following boot options:
noapic acpi=off
Let me assure you already that this workaround did not fix my problems. Nor does the flag "combined_mode=libata"; which was suggested elsewhere.
Another post suggests that smartd is the culprit; not only do I have the latest version of smartd (which was supposed to fix the issue), but even if I disable smartd I still see the same problem.
Yet another post indicates a problem with CD-ROM firmware. I have tried disconnecting my CD-ROM from the system, swapping it with another, all to no avail.
Yet another another post suggests that the skge (or its predecessor) was to blame; so I replaced the network card with another I have, using the 8139cp driver. I still see the same problem.
Somewhere around this point, I gouged out my eyes and tore out my hair. Thank goodness I am good at touch-typing.
What I have noticed, is that I only receive this exception (which seems related to disk activity) when my machine is under heavy NETWORK LOAD; i.e. when I am downloading the latest kernel (to pick a random example). If there is no network activity the machine seems to be fine.
The hard drive which experiences the problems is running off a Maxtor Ultra100 IDE controller card (promise-based). It's possible that this is the culprit, but I am having a hard time moving the drive off this card because I have setup my main partition using LVM (possible, but non-obvious). I upgraded its firmware just in case, but that didn't help.
I do not believe that the drive itself has hardware problems because it behaves fine when network traffic is not present. Also I did not notice this problem until I upgraded to Fedora 7, which I believe was the first Fedora distro to change the way the hard drives were represented (from the old /dev/hdx system). I also use the following hdparms on the drive:
hdparm -S 120 /dev/sdb
At some point I thought this was the problem, but through trial and error I believe it is OK. However it is possible that my sleuthing abilities in this department are not up to snuff.
I am looking for any advice which will help me to workaround the problem. I am not a kernel developer but I am fine with advanced system configuration. I just want to have my smoothly running Linux box back again.
What follows is the usual system information: ===================================

(Yes, it's true I have the proprietary nvidia module installed, my kernel is unfortunately tainted. I don't think this is the problem but if it will help to get to the bottom of things, I will be happy to disable it for investigative purposes).
Thank you for any help you may offer.
