It's the target URL generating the alert in Avast. That's normal but that also indicates that the site you are submitting to is probably considered spammy by Google.

I think these are false positive alerts, but may be these forum links (visible in screenshots) are infected with malware/ adware. But you don't have to be worry about it. Just sent an email to MS support team and they'll remove or replace infected links.

Hi that's by the looks of it as nothing to do with the Program it self. this is a website that it's visited. & this is normal.
hell my NOD 32 Screams when i use auto surf viewers Because some sites the program go's to are sadly Questionable.

Don't worry about it. it's normal

The sites that the program is accessing are infected.

I also get such warnings with other programs like Scrapebox and GSA SER.

It is normal.

Just make sure your antivirus is active and updated.

You will get more truthful answer here, as far as i remember their support is just a forum which is not very active.

yep, probably the sites it submits to are infected, i doubt the software itself is infecting you... unless you use cracked version, which doesnt seems to be the case here..
