Every few minutes I get an error message about openhardwaremonitorlib.sys as malware. What can I do to stop it? I have already made an exemption for this file in AVG. What is the solution?

A screenshot is not necessary since I have seen the same screenshot I have from several other AVG users. The error comes with anything I'm doing including at the desktop when I'm not using the computer. It started after AVG did an automatic update. If you search openhardwaremonitorlib.sys you will see plenty of users with the same complaint. What is the solution?
