Hi there,

Every time I search for anything on Google, I have an AVG Web Shield Alert.

It is always the same threat, from the same address.

Any ideas why this is happening?

Thanks

N.

Thank you for sharing us the screenshots, Nick. 
Upon checking it, it seems that a java script or extension in Chrome has attempted to access internet through chrome. As AVG found it to be malicious/suspicious, AVG has blocked the access. 
In this regard, please check & remove, if there are any unwanted extensions added to your Chrome. If not, you can also reset Chrome once & check. 
Additionally, please ensure that AVG program on your MAC has the latest patches applied to it (Open AVG program - click on refresh icon beside virus definitions at bottom left corner - restart MAC after successful update) & check if it helps.

Hi Dinesh,

I opened Chrome extensions and deleted Flash player, which seems to have worked!

Thank you for sorting this issue.

Best,
Nick

Glad to know that, Nick. Appreciate your efforts. 
Please ensure that AVG program has the latest patches, as informed in the previous post & try adding Flash player from another source (if possible) to check. 
Thank you for updating the status. Have a great day. Stay safe!
