Siril Download Website Blocked

Software Siril
1

Hi… The download site for the latest version of Siril for windows 64bit is being blocked due to security issues that have been reported. Even when I turn off my anti-virus, its being blocked by Mozilla Firefox. Other links work fine on the website, just the download link. This is the message I get:

Hi & welcome to the forum.

Have you tries downloading from here: https://siril.org/ there are several choices for a windows download.

Hello we have tested our download link and found no issue: https://free-astro.org/download/siril-1.2.0-rc1-setup.exe

Same here. I’m using kaspersky plus 21.13.5.506. I bypassed the website blocking, however siril download file siril-1.2.0-rc1-setup.exe is immediately scanned and deleted by the software, stating that the file includes trojan horse “Exploit.Win32.BypassUAC. hdxr”. Even a scan among kaspersky security network KSN reveals a threat. I’ve been using older versions of Siril until now without any such problem?

I am having the exact same problem with siril-1.2.0-rc1 and Kaspersky Total Security.

So we can give you the exact same answer. The best to do is to put Siril on a whitelist.
