I keep getting a message that says openhardwaremonitorlib.sys has been blocked due to vulnerabilities.  It recommends a fix to disable vulnerability drivers which seems risky.

This started a few days ago and I can't correct it.  What do I do?

Here is a screen shot of what I get.

This started about 3 days ago and is random but consistent.  It doesn’t matter what I am doing.  It comes up about every 2 minutes consistently.

I don’t know a list of AVG programs I have installed.  How do I find that out?  I think I just have the free version.

Here is a screen shot of what I get.

AVG blocked a vulnerable blocker message

Thank you,
