Some clarifications, if my above post was not clear enough:
- there is no threat-popup; the browser activity is just frozen.
- this occurs with Safari, but not with Firefox
- it affects diverse websites in a random fashion, even definitely trustables such as the apple site
- the bug affects apparently the conversation of the browser with the WLAN router, as the frozen state can temporily resolved by short interrupting the WLAN, and permantly, by inactivating the Web/Email protection in AVG.

My installation of Antivirus (free) killed Safari (Mac OS 12.3.1): after a few websites visited, Safari was not progressing and frozen for more then several minutes. I figured out, that the web protection and permit for proxies interferes with Safari in the communication with the router; shutting down the WLAN for a second restored the functionality for the present blockade, but it came back soon. Permanent solution was requiring to inactivate the web protection /permit for pro installation. The problem does not occur with Firefox.
That's sad, as many Mac-User are have chosen Safari as standard browser. Is it planned to work on this?
