I no this stuff is simple stuff but some people complain on how they get hacked

1. Have a good anti-virus software
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

(Run weekly scans) this stops key loggers.

2. Subscribe your e-mail address to your account
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
(They need this to recover your account)

3. Make your password hard to guess
Don't use passwords that are easy to think of

4. Set recovery questions
These are used if somebody got into your account and deleted your e-mail and didn't put one of there own.
(Don't forget to keep a copy in a file on your computer in case you somehow forget)

5.Phishing Websites
When you log in to forums on runescape of a site then in the URL bar on the left it will have it is trusted
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
(No matter how real a site looks when you follow a link then always re type in runescape at the top into the URL (U can never be to careful)

6. Phishing E-Mails!
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
Here you see its legit name but it says my account has been disables :S
What the best thing to do is to report it as a phishing e-mail.. How?
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
Then double check it... go onto the runescape website yourself and then check the problem yourself.. never follow any links from any e-mail

Well guys this is my guide on how to keep your account safe
If i remember any more then i will post

Hope this helped

So many critics these days
So wat if its just common sense? U see people everyday getting hacked and that's due to them not using security

I thought it woulda been helpful for the younger ppl who don't have "common sense"

...I'm playing right now and it doesn't say Jagex Limited

EDIT: and if you READ it says when you LOG ON to the forums it says "Jagex Limited"
