First of all, I'd get rid of AVG, if I were you. It isn't a good AntiVirus. Spydoctor isn't much better. Running two AntiVirus on the same system leads to conflicts.
The I-worm/VB.GG, aka Worm/Brontok.a - Worm, aka rontonkbro.exe is a worm that helps hackers get all the information from your computer.
It's, unfortunately, a worm that needs to be manually removed.
Please do understand and agree that the advise given here does not in anyway make me liable for any damages due to your omissions and commissions.
Registry Editing is a job for professionals, not amateurs. Please follow advise carefully.
Please go to Start and click on it.
Go to Run and click on it.
In the dialog box that appears, please type in regedit and hit Enter.
In the Registry Editor Panel that opens, please click on Edit.
Move your cursor down in the drop down menu that appears and click on Find.
In the dialog box that appears, please type in the name of the program you want to find, like, for example, I-worm/VB.GG; and hit Enter.
In the right hand Panel, select the values that appear with this name and delete them one by one by single left clicking on the value and then single right clicking there and choosing the option Delete and single left clicking on it.
When all the values have been deleted, go back to Edit and click on it. This time select the Find next Option and click on it. Type in the same I-worm/VB.GG again and hit enter. Again, do what you did earlier by selecting and deleting the values that have the name on the right hand side panel; that appear.
Continue doing Find Next and deleting the values till it shows no more values to delete.
As the Trojan lodges itself in numerous places, you might have a lot of deleting to do.
Also run checks, by the same method, for Worm/Brontok.a and rontonkbro.exe; which are two other known names under which this worm lodges itself here.
When you are certain that you've deleted all the traces and values relevant to the Trojan, exit the Registry Editor and reboot.
This time, I'm sure you'll find the computer is clean and the next time you have a pesky Trojan who cannot be easily removed, you know how to manually remove it.
All the best.
Cheers.
PS,
The Registry Area is a dicey palace for amateurs to fiddle around since deleting the wrong file or folder can have disastrous results. Please exercise extreme caution.
PPS,
I'd recommend Avast AntiVirus which is a free of cost home users' license AntiVirus, which is good.

First, do a system restore to before the problem happened. If that does nothing, try uninstalling and re-installing AVG. In the short amount of time I'm pretty sure you won't get a virus. If it's still messing up... get a new virus program. Avast free antivirus, Avira Antivir Personal, Panda Cloud Antivirus, etc.
