The detection may be a false positive. Submit the file to AVG for further analysis.

AVG Forum: How To Handle Suspicious False Positive Detection? <- includes instructions for rootkit detections
AVG FAQ 2321: What to do when I suspect any file it is infected? <- for suspicious files not detected or not in the vault
AVG FAQ 2142: How to upload a file to our FTP server
AVG FAQ 2159: How to create a password-protected archive

If the file has been placed in the Virus Vault, then follow these directions:

-- Even though the instructions say if you suspect the file is clean but you still have doubts, submit anyway using this method.

If it is a confirmed false detection, you can restore the file from quarantine or ignore the detection until the database is corrected and no longer will detect it.
