I've had to deal with a infected PC before , the Virus Alert message popped up everywhere , it disabled , task manager ,hid the CD-ROM drive and C:drive .It's malware ,a fake virus , not strictly a virus . 2 programs you should always have on your machine ......MalwareBytes & SuperAntiSpyware . MalwareBytes is the only one you can install in safemode .It will leave remnants behind in the registry ,so use a registry cleaner .
Virus alert! PLEASE HELP -

One thing I suggest you do is scrap AVG since it's just a placebo and install Avast even though the only way you'll be able to keep those fake AV's out of your computer is to upgrade malwarebytes to the pro version (these fakes change on a daily basis and no anti-virus program can keep up with the changes).

Avast free is pretty good
UNHACKME will get anything out, i think torrents and other places have it,just in case it doesn't do the job.
