AVG Constant Error Following Update

Ever since I got an update to AVG on 8/1/2015 I am getting a constant error message which reads as follows:
unspecified error occurred in the folowing AVG component(s)
- avgidsagent.exe
Would you like to send an error report to AVG?
I am on Windows 7 Home Premium.
It is coming up every few seconds and I can't stop it without turning off AVG.  Anyone have any ideas about this and what to do other than backing off the update if thats even possible?

Thanks

Hello Art, sorry to know this. The avgidsagent.exe is the back ground process which is running for the Identity protection component. Since you are receiving this error, there could be chance that the program is corrupted. I request you to re-install the program to fix this issue. Please get back to us if the issue persists. Refer the below instructions to re-install your AVG program. Thank you.
