:O didnt notice about it hehe, I wouldnt trust with PowerBot after all they did in the past. Also reflection bots now aren't as safe as these were.

Conclusion: Why bot with reflection bots such as powerbot, epicbot… when you have the awesome and almost undetectable Simba :D

Yep I can safely say all of runescape's defences are built around detecting reflection bots..I would wait atleast a few weeks before even attempting reflections unless using throwaway characters.

I didn't say this for you, it was just a conclusion not addressed to anyone in concret just for general.

Doesn't matter, if there is any type of malicious code in there, PowerBot knows they are only going to get the credentials of "stupid" users that trust everything (i.e most Windows users). They should release it open-source, they have nothing to hide. Though I can see where they're coming from as they seem to be one of the only workin Ref bots and releasing the code would just result in a bunch of copycats popping up..meh, it's whatever. Simba + SRL is fine with most.

Ah thank you Sex. Great minds think alike, no?

Wow, another keylogger is up.

NotReligious

2012-03-16 07:58:26

It is a "preview".

Which means no scripts what so ever..thus you can't even tell if it is working or not. A lot of people are reporting that PB won't even load.

dont bot on your good accs till the optimus shit passes
if they can really see if you use reflection+injection then we would be screwed (ur already screwed if you used epicbot)
btw, when pb had a mass hacking, a dev named gh0st did it and not the other staff

Closed source = 100% keylogger :)

the most successful paid bot was closed source before it was taken down, right?

it used to be opensource untill it got keylogged to the knee

RightClick

2012-03-16 15:06:36

like epicbot, don't download it, you are going to be keylogged, so many people got hacked by epicbot, and anyway, jagex release their bot nuke this month, so they are going to be outdated for a second time, x) make me laugh loll

Not anymore since they want to have malicious code in their client.

PowerFail ^ lol..

They went closed-source due the fact open-source would break the laws?

about rsbuddy.. Was it a keylogger anyway? I know it was developed by jacmob and they were sued as they were situated in the US. I really liked that bot :c

It did some messy stuff if you used cracked scripts

Which had nothing to do with rsbuddy. That was more because of the person who cracked it.

Just sticking with Simba now I got the hang of scripting AND that I can actually see what a script is doing.

No. if you used cracked script you get banned from rsbuddy portal and accound hacked.

Rsbuddy was not malicious.
Rsbots.net was not malicious.

Both were the top money making bot companies that just couldn't beat Jagex in court so they closed.

(Rsbuddy, didn't even want to go to court)
–

Can't vouch the validity of any other software as powerbot DID have a keylogger in it at one point.

Just my opinion here but seeing as how alot of powerbot members pay for their ranks, I believe that it would be stupid for their devs to make a keylogger. I am not saying that I support powerbot but I would think they would make more money as a legit closed source reflection bot then keylogger. It will be interesting to see Jagex's response to them being back online.
