Oh well, lesson learned.
I have not been hearing great things about AVG lately. I monitor the various anti-virus companies quite often and really like Microsofts Security Essentials (free) and Norton AntiVirus 2010 is REALLY good (surprise surprise).
I have been hearing a lot of Apostolics are getting these bugs, I do not know if it is a threat specific to us or if we are just collateral damage in the spread of malware, viruses, & trojans.
It is all about social engineering. Who here wouldn't open something that SisAlvear sent you? (She didn't send me anything -just using her as an example). Even if all the email said was "Click here for a GREAT time!"?
Hope you get it cleared up soon with minimal damage.

Remember to boot into safe mode (by hitting F5 during the BIOS start up process -or POST) and run Malwarebytes Anti-Malware. Also make sure it is updated.
