Hi Defence,

Since you chose 'abort connection' you are safe, the web shield caught the iframe infection before it was downloaded. :)
The only danger for your computer would be if you were to visit th site without the webshield.

Hi Defence,

No if you aborted the connection the site in question could not have re-directed you to a malware downloading site, so avast kept your computer safe. Websites nowadays, also trusted and reputable ones, can get injected with malcode because of insecure older website programs or exploitable code.
