Why is a brony community forum detected as virus?

I just went to one of my favorite brony forum community websites today, and i noticed a virus alert from avast… So is the site itself unsafe or was it hijacked or something?

If you want the link to look into it, it is as follows: hXXp://mlpforums.com/topic/40287-appleblooms-cutie-mark-as-a-zapapple/

I thought i should mention I just revisited the site to see if i could get the 2nd popup that showed when the popup in the screenshot listed above, It didn’t show but the site did load and no popup from avast… whats up with that? ???

Hi Coolmario88

Others block it as well else it would not be mentioned here: http://unblk.net/unblock/mlpforums.com
