Does the other installed tools find an issue ?

My general rule of thumb is to run sweeps again and or use another suite because it is common for things to be reported back in error.
If it shows up still then run its cleaner / remove tool (if applicable)

Is anything specific ie wording being shown via Avg ?
This might give an idea what it is.
If installed by the vendor it could be a false report.

If this was something vendor-installed, it's possible that AVG has simply found an advertising link. It's never a good idea to be complacent, but I think I'd regard this as a false positive.

Then I think I and @hrym are in agreement.
