Have Proboards got back to you Perpetua ? Certainly not fixed for me.

Is it not @hubcap!

Has been fine for me since this morning . . . . the thread on Proboards Support hasn't been updated with any issues for a few hours now.

May I suggest you post there with your issues to let them know:

support.proboards.com/thread/556056/malware-problem?page=1&scrollTo=6394230

You can post as a guest, there's no need to register an account.

@hubcap there is nothing Proboards can do about this. It looks like Avast have most likely picked up on something they don't like on one Proboard forum & ended up blacklisting them all.

There was an Avast update today, so as sydsut says, make sure yours is up to date. However, I wasn't experiencing the problem before the update or since.

I'm not concerned, just pee'd off with it.

It's rather tedious, I must have done a couple of dozen this morning . . . . it might just help get Avasts attention if you do.
