Yesterday I upraded from AVG 7.5 to AVG 8. Now today when I went on the internet to the homepage this message popped up on IE. What does this mean and should I be concerned? What should I do?

Should I be concerned?live update
Yes, definitely you should be concerned. The site you visited is more likely the phishing website. That is simple the clone of original website that asks you to enter some personal information mostly bank details for your identify theft. You should not be fooled by the look of the website or the masking of original URL (Web-address)
The best suggestion to you is: Get the hell out of that website.
Hope that helps!!
