Download 'CCleaner Basic' here http://www.ccleaner.com/download/bu...
Install and run it. Then purge the Restore Folder by going to 'Control Panel/ System/System Restore' and check the box ' Turn off system restore on all drives' click 'apply' and 'okay'.Reboot your computer and then enable system restore again and create a 'New Restore Point' by going to 'Start/Programs/Accessories/System Tools/System Restore'
Re-scan with AVG to see if it's gone.

Last picture is a tad misleading (I think). It's tick box to disable, untick box to turn back on.
