Dittos on thoughtomator's comments - if you are unsure what an archive is it's usually a .zip file or similar (e.g., .rar) containing other files (that have been compressed and stored). AVG and most other modern AV packages will scan inside these archive files since they are can be (and often are) hiding places for a virus.
