An odd detail was that the "new" version is apparently blocked by
smartscreen on W8, but i've not yet seen any links to a virustotal report.
Is virusscanning considered obsolete?

idea that it's a case of account being compromised, including the signing

It will be interesting how that proper report will be published;
- at least some keys appear to be compromised
- developers are not well known

Then again, it indeed looks a lot like an account compromise (a thorough
one).
