AVG have a free rescue CD that can be used to recover your computer when the system cannot be loaded normally, such as after an extensive or deep-rooted virus infection.
The AVG Rescue CD enables you to fully remove infections from an otherwise inoperable PC and render the system bootable again.
The AVG Rescue CD aims to help people so affected to recover their system. Essentially, it is a portable version of AVG Anti-Virus embedded in a version of Linux so it doesn't need Windows to operate.
You can choose to download for use with either as a bootable CD or USB stick. Apart from the AV program the software also contains a variety of useful system tools for restarting a PC such as such as a file manager and registry editor.
The AVG Rescue CD is completely free of charge. There is a FAQ and free forum for the product, but only people with an AVG commercial license are entitled to receive technical support.
