It's likely to be a false positive. AVG's heuristics engine appears to be a bit keen on labelling things as trojans for no good reason.
If you want to be sure, you could temporarily remove AVG and install Antivir Personal and run a scan. This product has the best detection rate of any free antivirus. http://www.free-av.de/en/products/index.html
If it finds the same problem, it may well label it better even if it can't remove it. If it doesn't find anything, then it's probably AVG playing silly buggers. If you prefer to keep using AVG, uninstall the Antivir and submit the AVG false-positive report to their support. Apparently they're pretty responsive with releasing updates to fix F-P problems.
Also, have you tried running something like SuperAntiSpyware to remove other funnies that might be on your system?
