    Default Hidden 7/15/08 Update

    I would not have noticed this at all if not that I left the runescape game applet up in my browser between 10 Central and 12 Central.

    Somewhere in that timeframe, a hidden update occured to the Runescape game.

    So, it told me I had to reload the rs applet to login, so I did.


    And when I did, There was an AD on top. Thats right, and AD. And not just any ad... This one said that I should disable my ad blocker, as I was breaking rules.


    This means that Jagex has:

    a) Redone their ad-code, so Ad blockers no longer work (maybe integrated ads into the applet)

    or

    b) Can now detect if you are blocking ads

    Tsn is right, and I still don't see any ads, only sometimes when I login.
    But everyone already knew that.
    Adblock still works I believe.
