I have had avast throw these errors on 2 of the computers on my network today, 6 times on one and once on the other. I have never heard of this kiynew [dot] com what is this and how do I make it stop?

First I don't use Google Chrome.
Since the Process making this connection is Chrome.exe and you aren't trying to connect to this site it is a possibility that you have an extension/add-on that is responsible for this connection attempt.

Have you added any new extensions/add-ons recently ?
Try running Chrome without extensions/add-ons running and see if it still occurs.

Others also consider this site malicious, https://www.virustotal.com/gui/url/5a42fb8785ec4ae30a4f799cbafd8e716d9dd65d608f326283c283d84e4929e0/detection
Considered a medium security risk https://sitecheck.sucuri.net/results/kiynew.com

I have no new extensions I only use 2 and have been using them for years with no problem. Avast seems to have stopped it if it continues to act up I will contact again.

OK

If it happens again, try disabling extensions and see it can be pinned down.
