jade1234 Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 this guide is written by jade_mage2 of runescape or know on the tip.it. forums as jade1234 this is a quick guide explaining why your computer at school will not play the game and a way you may be able to fix it *no guarentees this is just what i know can be wrong and how to fix it. problem 1 (the most common) your school's computer more then likely doesnt even have java!!! it probly had java when they bought it but the technology director saw it unusefull and had it removed you should be able to go to start-search and type in msjav and find the install program. if it works, and in some cases it doesnt you can play, if it doesnt work, msjav is still undownloadable thanks to those horrible people at sun. but if it isnt working then the only other option you have is to download sun's java. go to http://www.sun.com and download their java *hopefully without the teacher noticing because if you ask i can almost guarentee the answear is no* and install that *it may need a restart so that can be a bit tricky* see problem 2 for the rest of this guide (it may or may not apply all computers are different you know) problem 2 the computer has java but it is not enabled. this is a fairly simple problem to fix, in a webpage simply click tools,internet options, click the advanced tab and enable the java applet and anything else thats there for that java *may require a restart* if the computer has both msjav (microsoft VM) and sun java and they are both enabled, i recoment disabling sun java because when they both are enabled they tend to cause a conflict problem 3 (pretty much unfixable) your computers content monitor or as i hatedly call them "child locks" are keeping the java applet from loading, this can only be fixed by disabling the "child locks" on that computer, i cant tell you how exactly to go about doing that because in most cases you need to be logged in as an administrator to disable it, so pretty much youll have to get the teacher to this concludes yet another guide by jade_mage2 enjoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

runesmithie Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 This really isn't an allowed topic here. If they wanted us to play games in school they wouldn't have blocked them. I just posted something! ^_^ to the terrorist...er... kirbybeam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dorkvader Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 i happened to look at the first 2 characters of my teacher (who is lord over the whole computer lab with a $3200 wireless network) the last one is of course his last initial. its pretty sad that such a high personage should have such a sad password to an administrator account anywhere in the school. yay for runescape!

Stuart_G Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 School is for learning, not playing games. Honestly, im getting a bit tired about these threads asking or telling how to bypass school filters. They are there for a reason. Most threads i see that ask how to pass filters at school/work/otherwise usually end up being locked, and this is probably going to be one of them. I propose that there should be a rule made that is against asking or telling how to bypass filters at school, work or otherwise so there are no more of these threads. Anyone agree with me on this?

weezcake Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 The administrator that installed the lock on the computers put it there for a reason. Besides, school is for learning, not playing Runescape. ==================================Retired tip.it moderator.Teaching and inspiring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
