Was blocked from logging into Facebook by a security alert so I ran a complete scan with AVG. No threats were found. I still couldn't log in so I downloaded the ESET scan being suggested by Facebook.

It returned the following report which suggests that there were at least potentially troublesome files that AVG missed. I don't know enough about the reported files to know how much of a threat they were, but it was judged sufficiently problematic that I couldn't log into Facebook.

ESET Online Scanner found and removed 8 of 11 malicious files:
  • a variant of Win32/AirAdInstaller.A potentially unwanted application
  • a variant of Win32/AirAdInstaller.A potentially unwanted application
  • a variant of Win32/AirAdInstaller.A potentially unwanted application
  • multiple threats,PDF/WorldBusinessGuide potentially unwanted application,VBA/TrojanDownloader.Agent.E trojan
  • HTML/Phishing.Gen trojan
  • Win32/Sobig.F worm
  • a variant of Win32/Toolbar.Conduit.B potentially unwanted application
  • Win32/Toolbar.Conduit potentially unwanted application
  • Win32/Toolbar.Conduit potentially unwanted application
  • Unknown Name
  • Win32/Toolbar.Conduit potentially unwanted application,a variant of Win32/Toolbar.Conduit.AL potentially unwanted application
