Problem with Runescape.com


RustyDust

Recommended Posts

Hello everyone.

 

I've got a rather strange problem. I can't do anything on www.runescape.com.

 

The page itself loads correctly, but when I'm trying to play, go to the forum, customer support, it goes:

I tried playing trough IE, Firefox, SwiftKit. They all do the same thing, so I guess there's something wrong with my computer. The thing is, it just occured randomly. I didn't change anything in my PC. One day I just turned it on, wanted to gain some morning Hunter experience, and bam. That's what happened.

 

 

 

Any tips on how to fix it?

For some reason i don't trust that. try this link http://www.runescape.com/game.ws?m=1&j=1, it takes you to where the game loads up and you play it.

I believe that to be a scamsite, perhaps you have some malware on your computer. Could you please PM me a picture of your whole browser window (including your address bar) while you are on that page (just to make 100% sure)?

 

 

 

I would also suggest you run a full virus scan as soon as possible, it looks like some malware has changed your hosts file to redirect runescape.com to a spoof site.

I was even thinking about that. Scanning. Thank you guys.

 

Oh yea, and the adress bar says "http://runescape.com/loginform.php?m=1&j=1".

 

Seems normal, but..

 

 

 

And CptBaker's link doesn't work. Same thing happens.

Something is wrong. You should be able to go to the forums or load up the game. I do it all the time without being logged in. So whatever you do, do not put in your info. Or you can try putting in fake info... But idk how well that would work :wall:

Definitely some sort of scam site

 

 

 

"http://runescape.com/loginform.php?m=1&j=1" that link isn't humanly possilbe on the real site

 

 

 

real site ALWAYS has www. or a replacer such as weblogin. or items.

 

 

 

secondly if you go to log in you get:

 

"http://www.runescape.com/loginapplet/login.ws?mod=www&ssl=0&dest="

 

If you flip to the non java version:

 

"https://weblogin.runescape.com/loginform.ws?mod=www&ssl=0&dest="

 

 

 

Neither is the address you are getting, nor php based

Ok, we know it's a fake masking address now. Could you please do the following?

 

 

 

Go to Windows Explorer, and navigate to "C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\ETC". Double click to open the "hosts" file. When it prompts you to ask what you want to open it with, choose "Notepad". Then either copy and paste the contents into your post, or into a PM and send it to me if you feel uncomfortable showing it in public.

Ok, thanks for the PM.

 

 

 

What I recommend you doing is running a full virus scan as soon as possible and see what comes up. This would be the best way to firstly remove the problem, we can deal with the redirects later. Once you have the results of the scan, post back here.

Yea, well... I moved the hosts file. The site loads normally now.

 

I can't believe I somehow let it happen.. I didn't do anything and.. well, I guess I was underestimating these things. My password stayed the same, I logged in.

 

 

 

Thank you guys, I don't know what would happen without your help.

 

 

 

PS. Scan is still in progress. Got loads of stuff to scan through xP

I'll take a guess that you'd be on here, saying "Help i've been haxed, what do i do" or something along the lines of that. But glad its working again. Happy Scaping.
