ASN is used as exit point for a TOR router and for spreading a fake (real old) version IE :
http://urlquery.net/report.php?id=1474260197248

3 vulnerable libraries detected :

My advise :
- Fix the vulnerabilities
- Stay away from (free) shared hosting on GoDaddy

As it is used for a TOR exit, I doubt avast will unblock it.

Yup, move to another IP: change hosting (preferably to a dedicated one)
