Shady, shady SRL! Everyone here is shady!
Im just kidding guys, but buddy.. I have been using Simba, been a part of this community for over a year now(so glad to be able to say that), and I have never been 'hacked' by using any scripts here. I might have lost a lot money in unfortunate events, but never with a script... Ever. I hope you resolve this problem as soon as possible, and if you need help, I dont mind helping you a little.
We are here to help you.

I'm sure that this has already been said but I would bet my money that you were hacked via other programs on your computer, or from someone who might know your passwords, ect... Because Simba, SMART and ALL scripts are 100% open-source, open for anyone and everyone to view, that alone should atleast hint you that Simba itself has nothing to do with the hacking on your account.
In the past we've had just a couple scripts that were obfuscated and attempted to log a player's name & password to be sent out to an email. Luckily because we have extremely cautious staff here those scripts were de-obfuscated, removed from the forum, and the users were permanently banned, if not IP banned (I'm not sure). I can assure you, if someone releases a shady script we will know about it and they'll be dealt with.
You'll find we are the only open-source community related to the RS macro scene, you simply won't find a safer, more secure program than Simba, period. Now if you were hacked on your account then be sure to get the IP address of whoever last logged on. You can pass this along to a moderator here and they'll compare it to all known IP addresses on SRL, just to see if you were hacked from someone here. If so, they will, of course, be banned ASAP.

There are instances of people accidentally leaving their user name + password in a script and posting it here when releasing their work and or sending to one of your friends. It's happened.
I am always scared of these instances happning to me, scared or paranoid w/e, so that's why I take the precaution and never post my user name, password and pin in any script. I always enter it manually. Not saying a script could send my info to someone else, but just do that for myself that way to elmininate any way simba could be at fault. Even if its not possible.
I'm sorry this has happened to you, and yes people are sort of attacking you but you must understand people here don't take too kindly when someone tries to put down the community or send shade towards them. I do understand your frustration, but this is the reason for that.
Listen when I got hacked a while back, I started running a script, and before you knew it I made it all back. And im talking about in the 100mils. With Flight's runecrafting script, i made 100m+ and got 99 runecrafting. So just do what I did.
Glad you came around. As you learn scripting you will realize just how easy it is to check for a pw stealer in a script. And all my scripts are shady...muahahahha

I doubt PB or Simba was at fault for your hacking, I've used PB for 1 year + and Simba for around 9 months. Scan your computer before you get all emotional here.
In regards to this 'keylogger detector,' it appears as if the program monitors for all file changes so that if a keylogger were running, its log file would appear on that list. So just go through the list and look for locations that could might possibly be a keylogger's log file. Ill look it over to see if theres anything suspicious.
As for a RAT, (if the keylogger was enabled, the log file should show up on the list too) the best way to check for a rat (imo) is to check your startup. There are multiple ways to do this by either looking through regedit, msconfig or other programs that allow for viewing it. (id recommend ccleaner)
if you dont want to download ccleaner, use msconfig.
open the start menu and in the search bar type "msconfig" and press enter.
click on the startup tab then look over the list for anything that doesnt seem like it should be there.
Take note not to disable anything important as it could 'damage' your system, but you can always just re-check the box to enable it if it causes problems.
This startup location/method is what id consider the most common ways a RAT or Keylogger uses to start itself. (but there are others, though they arent as reliable)
TL;DR -- Check your startup for bad stuff.
edit: Looked over the list, but dont really see anything that looks like a keylogger's log file.

Sorry to hear you got hacked. It's always a blow but I highly doubt Simba hacked you, there are many members with 1b+ that haven't lost anything from using Simba.
I hope you manage to recover some gp or make it back quickly!

When i first used Simba I got hacked for everything. I did a virus scan with malewarebytes and had a RAT. I believe it was able to get my password because I put my password down in text for the script to log me in. I see lots of similarities between your case and mine. I don't blame Simba at all for that happening as it was my own fault for not detecting the RAT first.
In no way do I think simba or smart are responsible
For you being hacked as doing so you are accusing every single one of its developers of hacking you for as I can gather under its 5m where there many users here with a hell of a lot more than that who have been here for years like myself with no bother what so ever so all that leaves you with is
»Other third party programs
»Scripts that you have downloaded. Via private message or from any other source if not from its original thread here on villavu( a good idea would be to upload every version you have on your computer onto this thread so we can check each one of your personal copies if received from any other place than a thread on these forums)
»Using same password on other runescape related sites.(Example using the same e-mail and pass word to sign up to a rsps site).
I always thought that could happen what narcle said about rats targeting script log files all I can say here is be very careful don't trust no links until confirmed by someone trusted or until you can spot a rat yourself.
I think OP is 12 years old and to be honest not owning up to what he has downloaded.
It's ok... We understand, you like butch German men.

Man what I wouldnt give for 1b + ... I have used simba now for 2+ years and have millions (definitely nowhere close to billions) and have never had any issue running any scripts. I generally do a ctrl f on new scripts just to see if there are any call to websites or email but have long learned to trust everyone here.
I do feel your pain though ... I have never been hacked but have been lured 2x and lost a whip (back when they were worth millions) and a d pick axe (worth 12 million) and know exactly what its like to loose something valuable like that. Good news is there are so many good scripts here making 3.5 million back wont take that long!
