It could be ZEROHOUR as it identifies viruses based on attributes other than virus signatures thereby providing zerohour protection, in many cases the virus has no name as it has not been identified yet.

It is the internal AVG virus scanner saying it has caught an unknown virus, or what it thinks is a virus.
