No issues on either site for me, but I use Norton.

This may not be a direct threat. It looks more like a cookie or site coding issue that is raising a false flag.
Your first step should be to check your software library is up to date and install any updates immediately. This may resolve the issue because AV techs will at some point have been alerted to common issues and adjusted accordingly. If that fails get a full log of the thread and go to your AV site's help desk. They'll be able to provide more info about the cause/nature of the threat. Then you can come back to this site and the cybermonkeys responsible from keeping the gaskets from blowing can look into it.
