I was browsing the Top Kudoed Authors. Page 3 of the list was flagged by Avast software as containing a trojan.

Page 1, 2 and 4 worked fine. I don't know if anyone else is experiencing this or if it is something on my system.
This screenshot is what is reported by Avast. I'm not sure how to get more detailed information.

Now the page works fine. Not sure what happened there.

Hi aputman,
Thanks for bringing this to our attention and the update. We could not reproduce it on our side.
Please let us know if you run into it again.

After your response, I clicked the link again and it happened. Avast is closing the connection and the browser returns a ERR_CONNECTION_RESET. But this time, it was on page 2.
It's random. It occurs with Chrome and Firefox but not every time I view these various pages. Currently, it's blocking page 2 but earlier, it was page 3.

Hi aputman,
I will have our development team investigate this a little further.

Hi aputman,
Our development team's investigation came back negative. The web page has been deemed safe by the Avast security program.
Please let us know if you still see the warning message.

Hi Kristi,
I have checked today and the page is not being flagged. I can't explain it.
But I really appreciate you taking the time to investigate it.

You're welcome. I'm happy to hear it's no longer an issue.
