I just found this which explains what is going on.
Could be just Avast being overprotective, but it's odd it has never happened before? I suspect it sees something with PP that wasn't there before, hence the warnings.

"The blocked URLs will be shown as “Infected with URL: Blacklist” or “URL: Blacklist. This is a common problem many Avast users face, this is because Avast has an excellent web protection system that protects you from all suspicious online activities that might hurt your Computer or Personal Information"

Sounds like it can be repaired but I will see if it does it again tomorrow?
