Settings of the item "Removable device scan" are available in the Advanced settings of AVG, under the "Scans" item.

When you choose the "Removable device scan" item the dialog allows you to specify parameters for scan of removable devices. It is needed to check the "Enable removable device scan" checkbox to activate this feature. If you do this, upon every connection of any removable device to your computer (for example USB flash drive) this device will be automatically scanned for viruses and/or spyware. If you disconnect the removable device during the scan, the scan will be interrupted (and will start again after next connection of the removable device).
