I think I've been having the same problem, but I don't freeze. I just lag very crazily..

[goat62494]

I solved mine. At the top on the "Magic" Ad, right click on it and hit rewind. Now you'll be lag free! :D

peteypablo and goat, you both have PCs that can not handle advertisements. :(

 

 

 

You therefore only have one option. Block "advert.runescape.com"... Sorry, but that is the only permanent fix. :(

I had the same problem, turns out it was the server I was using.

This is true. If an advertisement is causing you problems, click on the "?" near the advertisement, note down the number it gives you, then follow the steps told to report the particular advertisement to Jagex.

Just one serious problem with all of that. Due to the wordings of Jagex's rules and TOS, they've auto-invalidated rule 15 of their own accord. If you're going to force someone to view something, 2 very deadly things apply:

 

 

 

1.) Policy of the location at which the computer is used. (This can not be avoided.)

 

2.) Federal law of the country in which the user resides. (This can not be avoided.)

 

 

 

Due to the above, Jagex can not under any circumstances, even through a TOS, state that they are not liable for 3rd-party advert damages or other types of damage imposed on a person's computer.

 

 

 

And sadly, focus-stealing, as well as viruses incoming from the adverts being triggered by the loading scripts of the advert server of RuneScape is immediately in violation of said computer location policy and federal law both.

 

 

 

I've said more than I should have to on this matter, Rcty and darkblade986 ... Bug off, and let the true techies talk. BTW, at this point, if any government wanted to come down on Jagex for all the viruses that have been triggered by Jagex's scripts, Jagex's personnel would spend near life sentences in Jail.

I'd say D_V_Devnull covered this better than I could, but if I can give advice, just block advert.runescape.com. You'll definitely get better performance.

 

 

 

And I'm pretty sure that people know about the stuff jagex uses. They say never to block the ads..I've HEARD it's because Jagex is starting to use their own spyware/cookies/whatever you want to call it to track people who use Gold Selling sites, Ad programs, Block Ads, and break the rules through the internet. If this is true, I'd definitely block their adverts.

 

 

 

Again, this is what I've **HEARD**

2.) Federal law of the country in which the user resides. (This can not be avoided.)

 

Quote the laws.

 

 

 

There is absolutely nothing stopping Jagex from banning users from THEIR website for not allowing media they decide to put on it. It's their website, they can do whatever the hell they want with it. If you don't like it, you're more than welcome to stop visiting.

 

 

 

Due to the above, Jagex can not under any circumstances, even through a TOS, state that they are not liable for 3rd-party advert damages or other types of damage imposed on a person's computer.

 

They can state it all they want, because they AREN'T liable. It is not Jagex's fault that an advertiser runs a malicious ad on a system Jagex thought was safe to run on their website. It is not Jagex's fault windows machines have unpatched flaws that allow the problems in the first place. They do their part to prevent said problems by screening the ads and allowing reporting of inappropriate material. Even the largest of companies miss things once in a while, and those are honest mistakes that aren't going to net you anything more than a "Sorry we missed that one" and it getting fixed on their end.

 

 

 

And sadly, focus-stealing, as well as viruses incoming from the adverts being triggered by the loading scripts of the advert server of RuneScape is immediately in violation of said computer location policy and federal law both.

 

Focus stealing can result from the browser just assuming the reloading frame deserves the focus. There is no malicious intent most of the time. Stop playing fear monger. Once again, Jagex doesn't provide the ads. The ad companies such as DoubleClick and BurstNet do. It is not Jagex's fault that the ad companies allow said malicious content in the first place and occasionally slip in filtering it from their rotation.

 

 

 

I've said more than I should have to on this matter, Rcty and darkblade986 ... Bug off, and let the true techies talk.

You sir, are no way in hell a 'true techie' either. Some of the advise you give is flat out wrong and could result in the user actually doing more damage. The default Dell search page you recently attributed to malware comes to mind. If you're going to be telling people to bug off, you sure as hell better have a better post history to back it up. When it comes to tech related stuff, you're no shining star.

 

 

 

On top of all that, telling people Jagex staff would get life sentences of all things proves you havn't the faintest of clues what you're talking about. If governments were going to throw Jagex staff in jail for running ads from DoubleClick, BurstNet, and the like you're going to be shutting off most of the internet for the same thing. Those companies have been doing the same thing for years on end now and nothing has changed. The fact Jagex is involved this time around doesn't change anything.

 

 

 

Stop mindlessly spitting out your opinion as fact. You consistently spit out information that if flat out wrong and doesn't help in the least.

 

 

 

And I'm pretty sure that people know about the stuff jagex uses. They say never to block the ads..I've HEARD it's because Jagex is starting to use their own spyware/cookies/whatever you want to call it to track people who use Gold Selling sites, Ad programs, Block Ads, and break the rules through the internet. If this is true, I'd definitely block their adverts.

 

I "heard" something, so I'm going to spit it out as fact because I "think" it's true! :wall:

 

 

 

If you can't cite it as fact, keep it to yourself. I suggest you read this entire thread, then read it again. After that, go and research the concepts and technologies behind it until you understand it like the back of your hand. Then and only then should you be spitting out what you think Jagex is doing with their website. This applies to everyone that thinks Jagex is using their website to install spyware.
