Hi, I have an issue. When I logged into windows I have a massage that Win security  has been blocking and removing the same threat everyday.

This is what it tells me,

Detected: VulnerableDriver:WinNT/Winring0.G

Status: Removed

A threat or app was removed from this device.

Details: This program is dangerous and executes commands from an attacker.

Affected items:

file: C:\Program Files (x86)\Hewlett-Packard\HP Support Framework\Resources\HPActiveHealth\ActiveHealth.sys

 

Should I be really worried about this? can I ignore this treath. And what can I do to try and fix this?

Hi @SEAS11 

 

I think it's a false positive. See the following link. This usually happens with monitoring applications. ActiveHealth.sys monitors your compatibility; you shouldn't have any viruses.
