Web Shield alert constant pop up

Hi! 
AVG doesn't let me work on my Mac by poping up 10-15 Web Shield alerts per minute. 
I tried to look for the option to disable it, but it seems there is no such thing. 
How can I deal with it?

Hi Dominika,

We're glad to look into this & help you.
Please let us know when do you receive the pop up from WebShield. Is it while accessing any particular website or upon launching the browser?
Usually, WebShield blocks & notifies if any website is found to be malicious.
For better clarity, share us the screenshot of it for better clarity. (If the pop up has 'See details' option, share us the screenshot after clicking on it).

Thank you for the screenshot.

From the screenshot, we understand that the issue is not with the software.

We request you to reset the browser which you are using and check for the issue again.
