Uninstall avg, use Avira+malwarebytes. Free versions available.
Start with Malwarebytes to hopefully determine exactly which virus(es) you have. Lot easier to clean it up if we know what it is. Once you find out which virus(es) you have you can come back here and ask or do a search on the net with the virus(es) name followed by "removal tool". M0ost people have beeen able to clean up their system without reformatting.

Note: AVG Free is a good pgm BUT you have to make sure that the virus definitions are kept up to date and AVG Free isn't real good at automating this task for you.
