AVG is poo i used to use it and it missed lots of virus's. If u would like to check ur pc for spyware and virus and delete them thoroughly try going to the computer associates website and do an online scan

also i use ad-aware anti spywqare tool which u can find here

and u might want a firewall too if u dont already use one, these are a few good free firewalls

Are you trying to remove it from the file it shows you? If so, forget it. The file is the worm, there's no other option except to delete the file.
