Threat blocked messages

Yes, it's still happening on both browsers (Edge and Firefox) even after a reset.

When I access, the community forums, it opens to the url ending with/answers and to  that one particular question before then proceeding to the regular webpage listing the  most recent questions posted.

Just to add on - it's not the same threat.  It's something abut a botnet. Again, it comes and goes so fast I can't read it.

I started getting AVG Threat blocked messages yesterday after visiting this forum.
PwrSh:Cryptostealer-B (pws).  

I'm getting them today when I visit this forum but they're flash by so quickly - I can't tell what they say. None of the messages are being saved in my history.

Okay, I did as instructed above. 

I think the first pop up message appeared after I clicked on another user's thread regarding the same. It no longer appears.

The seond pop up about the bot net started the day after when I first entered the forum. I then read some  messages about it including the one stared by Rosie P.  Now today, today's message I'm getting the below message (a quick screen flash) before it defaults to the regular forum page.  Just very odd.

'm no longer getting the first message, which happened yesterday when I clicked on another user's query about getting AVG pop-up message. I'm wondering if that user asking about the same threat - I don't recall. I will attach the screenshot from my history.
 
The second AVG pop-up message is about a url.botnet, possibly lijit - that I just received today.   I can't really tell for sure - it flashes by very quickly.  The action taken also doesn't register in my AVG history. I  get it when I first enter the forums.  I also got it when went back to aUser-added image screen and when I reentered the forum..
 
Both these messages were rec'd when I was in AVG forums.  Thanks.
