But you said you discovered with AVG that you had the worm but then you ran AVG and it didn't detect it. What's that mean??? Did an alert pop up when you opened outlook express and started downloading new messages? Did it say a certain message was infected? If so and you didn't open it then you're not infected. But run an online scan here to confirm:

If AVG catches a virus in an e-mail download it will throw the attachment into the Virus Vault.
