The best solution is to install the Avast root certificate in Seamonkey.
The installation is automatic for Thunderbird and clients that rely on
the Windows root certificate store (e.g. Outlook), but not for Seamonkey.

The procedure is outlined here (for Thunderbird, but it can easily be
adapted to Seamonkey):

But, in a nutshell, you have to export the Avast certificate from the
Windows certificate manager and import it to Seamonkey.
