Runescape applet not loading. (SOLVED!)

[Hidhaeg]

It's only been happening since this morning - once I have picked the detail mode, membership, and world, it gets stuck on the 'Loading Java Applet' phase.

 

I've tried clearing my cache - and changing my Runescape java options, I've also tried updating my firefox to version 3.0.

 

 

 

I've also run 'Malware-Bytes' for malware and adware.

 

 

 

Any other ideas? Nothing has changed since last night, when it was working fine - I just don't understand what the problem could be.

Hmm, could you give your system specifications such as Operating System, Java Version, RAM and processor?

 

 

 

Also, here's something you can try, I can't guarantee it'll work, but it's worth a shot, right?

 

 

 

First, clear your cache completely. Then, restart your computer by shutting it down then turning it back on again. This will help the RAM flush all the data out. Then, try it and tell us your results.

Windows XP SP2

 

x1650 Sapphire (512 MB) GFX Card

 

2 GB DDR2 RAM

 

Java plugin version 1.6

 

 

 

 

 

I'll delete my cache again now.

 

 

 

Further information: I just rescanned, I appear to be affected by the Vundo virus. Should be clear now - so I'm clearing my cache, then I'm restarting. I'll post again with results.

 

 

 

EDIT: Virus gone, cache cleared... Applet still not loading.

Uninstalled and reinstalled Java. Problem solved.

 

 

 

Thanks for your help.

Thanks for your help.

 

 

 

You're welcome, but it looks like you found out the problem yourself. :

 

 

 

P.S. I was going to suggest reinstalling Java after you restarted it. :P
