Thanks TC. It looks to me like it is harmless according to this explaination.

"Because of the increased use of this technique we have added detection of the double file extension into AVG. Of course there are cases of valid, harmless double extensions, e.g. uninstall.rar.bat, which is part of some installations of the RAR compression utility"

My wife is running Win95 and wants to install Mozilla which says it needs at least Win98 or better. What would you recommend as a new OS for that PC ? Its a 350Mhz machine. TIA
