| Post subject: | Warning to ... Runescape users. o.O |
I posted a warning to SwiftSwitch users thread, telling how SwiftSwitch will lag out in the middle of gameplay, and then a "SwiftSwitch has encountered a problem" message pops up. I switched to playing Runescape on Runescape.com to avoid this but ... I can't escape it. I just finished my second Barrow run, and I was at the Ectofuntus. I took a screenshot of my loot, logged out, pasted it in Paint, put it on here, and logged back in. As soon as I pressed the red "Click here to play." button, the window just closed out. With no warning. No lag. Just in a blink of an eye, first I'm checking how many days I have left until my membership needs renewing, then I'm staring at my wallpaper. It didn't even give me a "Internet Explorer has encountered a problem and needs to shut down." message! The same thing happened in Verac's crypt. I had just killed him, and clicked on the stairs, and right when I was going up, RUNESCAPE CLOSES OUT@@@@!!!! I decided, no more Barrowing, until I decide what the heck is going on... so I sent a query in to Jagex. The same thing happened to Steven Kill2 (Zaros), his browser just kept closing out with no lag or message! This is really getting on our nerves. I suggest everyone bring Rings of Life when they do something dangerous, or not do it at all, in case this happens. I will post why this happens as soon as I get a reply. |

Get the conspirators in here, I think Jagex's planning something evil. |

There's the problem. You're using Internet Explorer. Switch to Firefox. It rocks better for some reason and I find I get a lot fewer errors. |

My friends tell me that FireFox does the same thing. More than IE. |

That's another reason why I don't use SS. I've heard of it closing out people in the middle of the game. Have you tried Opera? Personally I think it's better than Firefox. Havn't gotten an error since I downloaded it. More customization too. It has way more features too. Try it out. http://opera.com/ |

Where was he asking for links to other browsers? Honestly. This hasn't happened to me yet, but thanks for the warning. |

What's with the browser advertising? (Lack of better word because the one I intended to use would trigger a warning.) I think you just need to update your java or something, did you try that? |

I think I have the latest version of Java... I don't know. But how would that affect what's causing this? |

It sounds like a problem with your computer, I'm still laughing than you were using IE and you got a Trojan XD. Yeah, I'm not much help. |

I wouldn't recommend using SS anymore since Jagex placed a even faster world switcher. The_Dude |

To prevent cookies and trojans in IE go to internet options, privacy, and advanced. Then block all third party cookies and prompt all first party cookies...that should stop 99% of cookies (got that top of spybots website...works like a charm). Now if I understand you right the page just disappears for Runescape. You go to a new page and then the tab is gone. I believe I've had this before. What you need to do is minimize or close all other windows, but not the browser. Then all of a sudden the page and the tab will open/popup (it is weird, but this has seriously worked for me before). This used to happen to me. If that is not what is happening to you then I don't know what to tell you. |

The_Dude I didn't say I was using it. This has nothing to do with that. Read the post... |

its cos of your java, "java runtime" i think. It happend to me a few times on Ubuntu which i think cos i have the wrong version installed for the wrong hardware. It isnt a problem with SS nor IE nor Firefox, try updating java or try a different version of java should do the job. |
