Today when I click on posts I get a flag saying this is a suspicious site and do I want to proceed?

Any clue as to what this is all about?

I can't give you an answer (yet), but some questions might help pin it down:

Are you using a PC, Apple device, Android device, etc?

What browser do you use?

What anti-virus program do you use, and does that message still appear if you temporarily disable it?

On my Windows PC I can add a website to a list of 'trusted' sites, so a warning message doesn't appear, but I don't know if that can be done on other devices.

I'm using a Samsung Tablet, with F-secure anti virus, use chrome browser, this only happens on the forum website.

I did have the same problem about 6 months ago, it lasted a few days then settled down, I did note my antivirus is due for renewal in 23 days, maybe I'm being a little suspicious as I last renewed antivirus 6 months ago, about the same time I got the last message??

With that info I'm afraid I have to retire, as I've not needed to set a website as trusted in an Android device.

You could however have a look at site settings here:
