We were made aware of an issue with the Avast anti-virus software that is blocking access to our web interface at [https://astro-colibri.com](https://astro-colibri.com)  
Several supposedly pishing-related issues are being raised by Avast. None of them are real and other services do not find any security issues of our platform. An extensive scan can be found here:

> **[Free Website Safety & Security Check | SSL Tools](https://www.ssltrust.com.au/ssl-tools/website-security-check?domain=astro-colibri.com)**
>
> Ensure your website is secure with a Free Website Safety & Security Check. Checking over 60 databases from companies such as Google, Comodo, Opera, Securi and more.

We have reported the false-positive alarm to the Avast team and hope for a rapid solution. Until then, you can safely ignore the Avast warnings to access our website.
