careful with that game runescape, it ruined 2 differant sets of cousin's computers, it makes you download an activex control to play and they say its to help in graphics of game when in the backround it installs scripts and trojans, the result of this massive infection was a fried motherboard

both computers were windows and the makers were hp and other was a dell both about a year to 2 years old.

im not sure of its effects on linux or mac, but be aware and be careful just beucase its free dont mean its safe to your system.

careful and always have backup for data on hdd.
