And the third and last question is: why the AV detected the virus
_before_ I visited the site?

It is easy to imagine a software automatically reviewing
all browser page-loads, and, before any links are
followed by the user, checking all further web pages
indicated by any urls included in the loaded-page's code.
(Similar to how link-following bots search the web.) This
would be more thorough and helpful than checking some next
web page only as the user happens to click on a link to it;
and maybe simpler since is proactve in the AV software, not
requiring reactively to interrupt a page-load action being
initiated in the browser software.
