Yeah, I guess that old hack got resurrected by some jerk.

AddOns CAN NOT contain key loggers unless there is an exe or some executable file packaged with them. We manually moderate every upload to verify each file is safe. We dont even allow authors to package addons with executable files so there is no mistake.
As an addon author, this is 100% correct, minus some small epsilon such as an executable error in the Lua interpreter that's never been caught.

Your account was compromised 4 times because you ran unknown executable programs or were unfortunate enough to click on the wrong email link (sent by a goldseller site) or visit the wrong site. None of your issues were caused by wow addons.
