Maybe someone doesnt like Google and constantly clicked NEGATIVE as rating :)

Google.com isnt blocked for me, may have been fixed already. Its marked as secure.

Theyre working on their Cloud backend, so maybe a small issue.

If it occurs again, I recommend reporting it on Avast Support Forums. Do you still get this Phishing warning message? Can you try again without uBlock and LastPass?

Do the Avast Online Security extensions have identical versioning (ie. Avast Installer and Chrome Web Store)?
Avast Internet Security 2016 11.1.2241
Avast Online Security extension in Chrome is 11.1.0.210
Avast Online Security extension in Firefox is 10.3.3.13

Well for sure sometimes due to regular maintainance check, there are instances that human error may occur and its confirmed from link posted.

No matter you redirect to other domain country of Google as when Avast popup then its an FP.

lol.
I love the way avast shows there is no trackers on that site.
Google is probably the biggest tracking agent on the web.
