Warning mfehidk.sys

Hello

I got recently lots of warnings send by mfehidk.sys, stated the MCSVHOST.EXE contains a signed  but not trusted code.

I find this very strange because both systemfiles are Mcafee's .

I'm using mcafee internet security and windows 7-64bits.

This is the report in html:

- <System>
<Provider Name="mfehidk" />
<EventID Qualifiers="33024">516</EventID>
<Level>3</Level>
<Task>256</Task>

</EventData>
</Event>
Any ideas on how to solve this problem?
pm: This morning, the logbook contains 9 reports (all the same content) within 10 minutes.

Thanks in advance

Nicolaas
