What you have is adware. AVG cannot remove it.

Install spybot search and destroy, update, scan, remove spyware and immunise your system.

Spybot search and destroy immunize your computer against spyware.

It modifies Internet Explorer to block a lot of the bad stuff known to Spybot.

There is a second layer of protection for IE that blocks anything that should come through by different aspects.

Answer 4

I would recommend backing up your data before anything becomes more corrupted. And then I would recommend reloading your Windows install. Some virus' are just a pain to get rid of. Just remember to always backup your data!

Answer 5

Put what you want onto disk then wipe computer.

If the Virus is still there after a full system wipe. Take it out back and put her down. Buy a new one and try to move on :D

Answer 6

Use an anti spyware to get rid of this explorer problem. You can find information and reviews on anti spywares at the link below.

Answer 7

It should be an ad-ware.

Think about it, a browser will not inform you of a virus.

Impossible that the virus informs the browser that it is there.  o.0

It is most likely an ad-ware or something that is trying to get you to buy antivirus software.

There isn't enough information.

If AVG detected it as a virus, go into safe mode to heal it.
