Dell Dimension 2400 desktop
Intel Pentium 2.19 GHz
512 RAM Windows XP Home SP2
80G drive Malewarebytes
AVG 8.5387 Anti Virus

I have used my computer for many years and run my anti virus many times but this time after running I am told that I have 62 virus that cannot be removed as standard user rights. It then asks if I want to remove threat as power user and presents a run as window to enter a user other than current user with a box for user name and pass word. ---There is no other user but me. I tried putting in my user(fredand bev)and my email password but nothing I enter lets me continue. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
