Avast blocks one every time I click on an AnswerBank page. It isn't happening on any other site. It's happening on Firefox and IE, only in the last hour or so. Is the problem likely to be my PC or the site or something in the interaction between them?

It says it's this virus:

Does this mean anything to anyone?

Yeah, you're right, it does appear to have stopped now. Well that was odd!

I'm on IE - no such problems here.
ditto jno, as posted there ^

Definitely an AB problem, as ive got a few windows open, and none of the other sites flash this up.

nothing happening here with FF16.

seems to have stopped now (fingers crossed).

Any advice on what it was would still be welcome.
