Dont install ANYTHING from the earn RuneCoins button

[Josh0is0here]

User have run into issues when installing programs from so called "Earning" sites. There are reports right now of the site being infested with Malware.

Another red flag is that the replies in the feedback link are hidden, which to me says that Jagex doesn't want people's problems made public. Link here

Response from Jagex Mod Infinity:

Thank you for your feedback regarding the SuperSonicAds platform we've recently integrated into the Solomon's General Store. We totally understand your concerns & feedback, which is why we've spoken with SuperSonicAds and have had ads which require you to download/install software removed completely.

If you spot any which prompt you to do so, please let us know and we'll chase it up as a matter of priority. Your feedback is important to us, and I hope this goes someway in showing that we are listening to your comments and that we really do value your opinions. Thanks

I hate mod infinity, he's such a twat. Tries to make all these official responses that make him look like a dumbass. Anyway, I'm not surprised by the viruses in the rune coins, lol

it's so sad how jagex are subjecting their players to ad companies that collect their information and subject them to viruses and adware.

Reminds me of miniclip or any other generic flash game site. I was okay with the micro-transactions, but these are pretty silly. Thanks for the heads up, Josh.

Wow. I was planning to do this later, haha. Thanks a lot bud.

Dafuq are you crying about? Noone is forcing you to go "earn" runecoins. There ain't no such thing as a free lunch.

If you do need runecoins for whatever reason, use http://www.sandboxie.com/ to do them and for the installs. Means you don't need to install shitty malware because it installs on there.

It's not about watching free ads for runecoins.
It's about partnering advertisement sites who auto-download players with AdWare.

Most people who tried the method are young children who don't know how to make money online thus get infected.
