I have just had another virus warning alert from my antivirus avg today, the first one was yesterday and both times were whilst browsing this site?

I also keep getting something coming up at the bottom of my screen - saying do i want to open this ? or something like that? It happens almost everytime i click to open a new post to read? Any ideas on what is wrong?
 
I have just had this:
A few other things popped up too much couldn't get a print of it

It also came up about there being a backdoor trojan attached to this site too. I think I might have to stop using this site as I've had this issue far too many times!

Yes that's what i had too? I wonder why we keep getting these messages? Can someone please tell us how to stop this happening as it only happens to me when i am browsing this site.
 
Get the free version of Malwarebytes and do a full scan.

A lot of this is caused by what they call BHO's (Browser Helper Objects).

Thanks for the link. Can i still use this with AVG? Or do i have to get rid of AVG? Thanks.
 
You can use them at the same time. It doesn't conflict with antivirus programs.
