Redirections in firefox are usually the fault of a malicious extension. I'm thinking it's one of the two .xpi files.
Start firefox in it's own safe mode without extensions and see if Avast still warns of malicious url's.

Interestingly I have no problem today in either normal mode or safe mode. Not sure what has changed as I haven't used the PC all day!0 -

Seems like there was a problem yesterday after an Avast update - looks like they've corrected it now. There were a few reporting the same issue on the Avast forums.
