AvastSvc.exe High CPU Usage When watching videos

It seems any time I watch a video or two, be it YouTube, direct mp4, etc in my web browser (Google Chrome), AvastSvc.exe starts making my CPU go to 100%. This is extremely weird and irritating. I would like to know if there is a fix for this. Thanks!
