When you say you are being redirected to a spyware site when typing Wikipedia in Google, does Wikipedia open with a warning from AVG, or you never get to Wikipedia at all?

This line from the HJT log concerns me

O2 - BHO: WormRadar.com IESiteBlocker.NavFilter - {3CA2F312-6F6E-4B53-A66E-4E65E497C8C0} - D:\Program Files\AVG\AVG9\avgssie.dll

Where did you get your AVG from, the site direct ? Might be a silly suggestion but have you tried turning the link scanner off and trying again ? I would need a second opinion on that BHO object though !

It's a legit AVG item. Read this.

AVG might be overreacting though.
