NOD32 says nothing. File extension is also pretty unusual as it's not infectable so i can assume it's false positive. Send the file to virus[at]avast[dot]com and wait.

I don't get any warning in the linked file, so please make sure you send the detected file (krnln.fnr).

You could also check the offending/suspect file at: Jotti - Multi engine on-line virus scanner (http://virusscan.jotti.org/) if any other scanners here detect them it is less likely to be a false positive. You can't do this with the file in the chest, you will need to move it out.
Or VirusTotal - Multi engine on-line virus scanner (http://www.virustotal.com/xhtml/index_en.html)

If it is indeed a false positive, add it to the exclusions lists (Standard Shield, Customize, Advanced and Program Settings, Exclusions) and check scan it periodically using the ashQuick scan (right click scan), when it is no longer detected then remove it from the exclusions.
