Popular Anime Site Crunchyroll.com Hijacked to Distribute Malware

Popular Anime site Crunchyroll.com was taken offline this morning due to a hack that caused visitors to be prompted to download a desktop version of their software. This software was not one offered by the site themselves, but one being offered by hackers in order to distribute malware. According to CrunchyRoll, the site itself was not hacked, but rather was the victim of a DNS hijack of some sort. The site was then used to distribute the CrunchyViewer.exe malware program. It is not currently known what this malicious executable does at this point.
