Here are the name of the Vundo Removal tools
VundoFix.exe
VirtumundoBeGone.exe

and smitfraud removal tools,

SmitfraudFix.exe - anti-virus may complain, it's a false positive though.
smitRem.exe

another good removal tool is SDFix.exe
TBH IMO AVG ain't worth the time and you only really need Spybot and SUPERAntiSpyware, the rest are just bloat. AdAware and A-squared are rubbish now.

Oh and get SpywareBlaster on there as well. That and Spybot might have blocked a lot of those malware problems brought on by the virii.
