A problem

Question 1: Malware warning from where?

Question 2: Did you scan with your regular AV software, or a 2nd opinion AV?

@Gorf this is what I get and I ran the av scan, I noticed it again last night as I logged off. I must have something lurking in the background

You may well have a nasty lurking there.

Uninstall Avast & reboot
Download & install Malwarebytes from here: https://www.malwarebytes.org/mwb-download/
Allow Malwarebytes to update itself & then run a scan
Let Malwarebytes zap anything it finds & reboot
Download Adwcleaner from here: Downloading AdwCleaner
Click the scan button to start
Once the scan has finished, click the Clean button & then accept the reboot
Uninstall Malwarebytes & reboot
Purchase, download & install Webroot Secure Anywhere anti-virus: Fastest PC & Mac Virus Protection - SecureAnywhere Antivirus 2014 | Webroot
(Do not allow Webroot to load their add-on into your browser - which it will attempt on first browser run after installation of Webroot)

Done.

That's not our IP. It's more than likely detecting a cookie that is loaded from one of the ads and considers it 'malware'.

@jdeg So if I clear the cookies this should stop?

I'm not sure since the ads on the site change constantly. If you turn off the option in that program to detect certain cookies as malware it'll definitely stop imo, a cookie is not malware.
