Did powerbot just hack me?

[swiftkitten]

Hey guys, I don't know alot about computers, so don't flame me for this but I'm curious as to what just happened to my computer.

I run idungeon and started it up today, it said it needed to be updated. Went to idung's site and downloaded the new loader, then to powerbot to download the new client. I saved the file in the precompiled folder, deleted the cache and started up the bot.

Passed by my computer 20 minutes later to see that it was restarting. I figured it had something to do with my harddrive, because I've bluescreened about 5 times in 8 days and I'm quite sure the harddrive is the culprit. Regardless I was going to send the error report on startup just so I could get a better idea of what happened. I sent it and this is the page I was redirected to:

It says the problem was because of possible malware named spooldr.sys. I'm not trying to freak people out or start "bot drama" but I DID just update powerbot, and everyone knows they have been hacked in the past.

I wouldn't trip too much because since it is just dung botting, and I have a PIN, they wouldn't be able to steal much more than a ring of kinship, but ironically I got 80 dungeoneering last night, so I'm now just botting for the remainder of the 200k tokens. Which means I traded the rewards dealer right before I started up the bot and had to enter my PIN. So if it is hacked, they've now got my PIN and my pass. GF me lol

I'm not looking for pity or to cause problems though, just wanted to know if my concern is legitimate or not. I just ran a quick scan with malwarebytes anti malware and nothing was detected. What's going on?

Thanks for your help everyone!

It sounds like it had nothing to do with Powerbot at all. If powerbot was going to infect their client again why wouldn't want to make something obvious and that would potentially hurt your computer. They have no reason to. It probably came from something else you may have clicked. However you still change your passwords. If it was not a virus it sounds like you may have computer problems in general, considering that you bluescreened about 5 times in 8 days. You should look into that.

Powerbot has never been hacked, I don't believe.
Powerbot scripter, Arbiter, did an update on all his scripts, implanting a .jar file that would run when you click run bot.
That .jar file was a keylogger/rat

As for your problem, just run your basic Anti-Malewarebytes and Spybot Search and Destory in safemode.

Powerbot isn't hacked.

I've been using it for weeks with iDungeon.
And I don't think they plan on hacking it again.
