You have a rogue, which is a fake antivirus program designed to scare you into buying their crappy product. My advice would be install Microsoft Security Essentials (free) or buy an internet security suite (Norton, Kaspersky or McAfee).
I never recommend using AVG, Avast or Avira (all are free). You'll notice that everybody wants you to try them and, they are easily hacked (since they're so popular). As I've said before, AVG has no rootkit detection. Avast has no proactive protection, such as HIPS or heuristics. Avira does a poor job at removing adware & spyware (like rogues). Avira also displays lots of ads.
