A week before the most recent tripwire event, it was already known that blizzard had updated their bot-detection methods for the x86 (32-bit) client.
Just saying.
(yes I can provide a source for that information, yes I know what I am talking about, yes I know how detection works)
I'll explain how you are getting detected:
Warden - blizzards anti-ch3at - checks for HB at specific moments, being:
For semi-non-nerds: Imagine the wow client's code being made up in layers, like a folder structure on your computer.
So... for a long time, Warden searched as deep as (for example) 4 layers -- No problem, HB team knows this, so they inject on the 6th layer...
TripWire was designed to check for any changes in the first 4 layers.... because in the past, that's how deep they could go and not be detected, until warden was upgraded. (cat and mouse game)
What HB/TripWire does NOT know is that blizzard upgraded warden, to go (for example) 6 layers deep or even further...
At that point, TripWire is outdated & Everybody got detected.
See what I'm getting at here?
TripWire was either turned on manually, or it detected the changes A WEEK LATER.
