Hi,

>Why the strange URL? Is this a beta?
It is not a beta. The URL is correct. The version 5.1.2 is released only to 
some users. The reason is that we updated the code sign certificate 
recently. Now Microsoft shows a warning that this installation is not 
verified each time user downloads the update. The warning will be shown 
until many users download and install the update and as a result the 
installation and the certificate builds the reputation. Only Microsoft 
knows how many users should download the update to remove the warning. So I 
decided to give the update only to some users so that the new users install 
previous version without this warning from Microsoft Smart Screen. Once the 
new certificate receive enough downloads and builds the reputation each new 
update will not have a warning. Three years ago this process took only a 
few days. Now they changed something and even after two months we still see 
this warning about the new certificate. After investigation we descovered 
that many developers reported that this time frame is a normal novadays.

code sign certificate and reputation if you are interested. 

>I hope this isn't a hack...
No. The installation is signed with our new certificate you can check it.

Please let me know if you have any questions or need more information.

Thanks,
Andrey.
