I've just changed the download URL to this one to avoid confusion: https://www.mylifeorganized.net/downloads/files/5.1.2/MLO-Setup.exe The portable version is here: https://www.mylifeorganized.net/downloads/files/5.1.2/MLO.zip
Again this is a temporal location of version 5.1.2. Once the ceritificate gain full reputation everybody will receive this and future updates from the normal location. Thanks for bringing this confusion to my attantion. I thought that this certificate transition will take just a few days, but it still needs more time. Thanks, Andrey.
