Yes, the thawte certificate is legit. Thanks Jack for explaining it so well.   No one should have any problems, since this was resolved last night.

For those of you just hearing about the issues, last night Bondware became aware of a security compromise to Renderosity and RuntimeDNA. The attack presented itself as a hidden Javascript application embedded at the bottom of certain pages, prompting the user to download and install an application that is actually a Trojan virus. Less than an hour after the attack, Bondware had isolated the affected scripts and started reversing the changes.

We have installed monitoring tools to detect a repeat attempt. We are actively investigating the details of last night's attack and will aggressively address any vulnerabilities discovered.

Please make sure you reject any and all unsolicited download prompts when visiting any website, as these could possibly be a sign of attack. Also, we strongly encourage everyone to always use anti-virus software. This type of trojan has affected some of the largest websites including Wal-mart, Target, etc in recent months, but routine anti-viral software seems to prevent damage to the visitors computer.

 agrose, your symantec anti-virus would have caught and blocked the concern if you had visited during the time of the problem, which started just before 9:30 and were resolved in about an hour.  Some people may have continued to experience an anti-virus block after the fix if their browser had cached the pages that had been compromised.

We extended last night's coupon. For anyone that missed it, please keep checking the The Temperature is Rising Sales Promotion located on the front page and watch the Site Announcements area for up to the minute specials.

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience that this has caused.
