BT (British Telecom) in its Wisdom has blocked Runescape For users with security set medium to High ..... i have tried getting on via proxy servers but as yet not been able to get into the game.

BT Have been trying to resolve the issue all day.

Ok I am in.....I have had to use a browser rather than client but I put this

http://world23.runescape.com/

into my address bar...took me a while to load it but I have loaded it!

Thanks deadly for the twitter feed...that saved me :D

I did the same thing but world104 I think - worked fine for me.

Going to try switching DNS and see if that makes a difference.

Luckily though we have two phone lines and I'm now not on BT - deliberately picked two different ISPs for more resilience :)

just found the same work around .... you may have to install Java if you normally use the client
