igfxsrvc.exe is a Intel(R) Common User Interface Process.

If it is igfxsrve.exe as you specified in your post and if the spelling is correct then there is a high chance of it being malware..

Yes this is spelling mistake. But avast team fixed this issue with definition update 120825-0.
I rescan the file in Virus chest there is no malware found. So I restore that file from chest to original location.

Thanks to all avast! Team.
