Hello Simon & others following this thread, Simon wrote when Lourdes inquired:

If it's the latter, AVG will alert you and quarantine the message but the infected file remains in the attach (or other) folder, so you'll need to run AVG to heal it or right (NOT left) click to delete it. Also, WinXP makes backup files that will also contain the virus, so run AVG on the whole partition.
