    Help!! Java Virus!!!

    i would suggest to
    A) not click on random links anymore.
    B) Put a bank pin on your rs acc and bank everything before you logout.
    C) install a free antivirus (something trusted. i use Avast. its goooood.)
    D) scan your computer after installing the antivirus, using the longest scan.
    E) Change your password, recoveries and your email password after the scan.
    F) If it still persists, Roll back your computer or re-install windows to remove the virus (NOTE. you will lose some, if not all of your personal data doing so.)

    Good Luck :)

    Usually you can remove these pretty easily with a free antivirus such as Avast/AVG.. but sometimes they are FUD (Fully Undetectable) and in that case the only way to 100% positively remove it is to reformat your entire computer.

    Help!! Java Virus!!!

    It would've been a virus transmitted by Java Script/Drive By. A lot of viruses are undetectable.

    OK so he has done all the damage he can do? Open your computer in safe mode and install Eset NOD. Run a full scan and keep it installed.

    Next time, don't put this in Runescape 2 General.
