Blocked program at startup

    Windows Defender, I think, reports a program has been blocked at startup,
    but when I click on the menu to investigate, I can find no problem.

    Vista Home Basic, 32-bit, SP2. I cannot find any reference to the blocked
    program. AVG is up-to-date, I can see no hint of malware, but will run
    superantivirus and malwarebytes.

    Any thoughts are appreciated, thanks in advance.
