You have a nasty virus,that is blocking your virus protection.
Can you get on the internet? I doubt it,so try this;
Start your computer in safe mode.
Reboot,and hit F8, or something like that,and you should be in safe mode.
Select safe-mode with networking.This will allow you to use the internet.
See if you can download this program “Malwarebytes.com”
After downloading, install,and try to run this program first.
Then run AVG,and reboot your computer. -

Reboot into Safe Mode with Networking. To get to Safe Mode with Networking restart the computer, and as soon as the computer starts, begin to tap the F8 key until the boot menu appears. Use the arrow keys on the keyboard to select Safe mode with Networking, and then press Enter. If prompted, log on as administrator.
Run System Restore (hopefully the malware hasn’t deleted the saved restore points)
Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > System Restore
Restore back to a date before you noticed the problem. Then follow the answers above and run Malwarebytes Antimalware. -

First. Enter one of the codes
WNDS-6W954-FX65B-41VDF-8G4JI
WNDS-G84H6-S854F-79ZA8-W4ERS
WNDS-TTUYJ-7UO54-G561H-J1D6F
This would disable most of popups.
Next, download any of these programs:
Hitman Pro http://www.surfright.nl/en/hitmanpro
Spyware Doctor http://www.pctools.com
MalwareBytes Antimalware http://malwarebytes.org/
SuperAntiSpyware http://www.superantispyware.com/
Scan with them.
If it fails, do it in safe mode, or delete the files manually : http://www.2-viruses.com/remove-system-tool -

If your computer has multiple accounts and an administrator account doestnt have the virus, then log onto it and completely delete the entire user account with the virus! Delete all the files and folders on that account, dont copy anything as they may all have traces of the virus on it! Once the account has been deleted, run an antivirus scan, after that you can just make a new account and start fresh!

Below is a link to a guide from the Bleeping Computer website on how to remove the System Tool virus.

Also, in order to prevent your computer from becoming infected with computer viruses or other malicious files or programs in the future, I would suggest that you run frequent antivirus scans, as well as frequent antispyware or antimalware scans.
If you need a free antivirus program, I would recommend that you try using Microsoft Security Essentials, which is free and can be downloaded from the link below.

If you need a free antimalware program, perhaps he should try using MalwareBytes, which can be downloaded from the link below.

Just so you know, I wouldn’t suggest that you have more than one antivirus program installed on your computer at the same time, as they may end up conflicting with each other. However, it is alright to have both an antivirus program, as well as an antispyware or antimalware program installed on your computer at the same time.
Also, perhaps you should try using Mozilla FireFox or Google Chrome, both of which are free browsers that are safer than Internet Explorer and can also be customized with a variety of free add-ons and themes and can be downloaded from the links below.

http://Google.com/chrome
If you are unable to remove the computer viruses and other malicious files or programs that are on your computer, or if you are unable to download or run a program, perhaps you should try booting the computer into into Safe Mode with Networking and then try to download and run the programs again.
Good luck and I hope I helped you!
