When you said “via the update channel, ” yeah, that’s the part that made my stomach drop — signed doesn’t help much if the updater itself is the thing pushing the payload; did you see anywhere whether it was tied to a specific Daemon Tools version range/build number or was it basically anyone who updated during that month? honestly not sure on that bit.
