I got mine once in the C: but then made by C: protected by anti-virus to monitor anything going in there and anything with the keywords UID or Jagex is killed :D

It can be in the following places:

Part 1: "c:/rscache/", "/rscache/", "c:/windows/", "c:/winnt/", "c:/", "/tmp/", ""
Part 2: ".jagex_cache_32", ".jagex_cache_34"

add part 1 to part 2 eg. c:/rscache/.jagex_cache_32

Jeez Jagex is starting to get tricky!

XcanadamanX

2007-07-22 16:56:37

just go to my comp and search for jagex. i got 3 folders right now that contain uids(made them read only and wiped them out)

Is it legal for them to do this? I don't remember giving them my express permission…

I doubt jagex put it there, unless they recently changed the coding in the client then its not possible.

just search all files n folders for UID.dat and delete everything it finds. You can take 10 seconds out of your life to make sure your character doesnt get banned.

i just looked up jagex

This is old news..

JageX tends to rename folders when you 'mess' in their old one..
Afaik there are 5 folders.
After making 5 write protected they either give up or do something else..
I still got my .jagex_cache_32, so I can keep track off what they put on my hard disk + manage my uid.dat.

Yah, for mine, its been there for a long time. If you delete it, it won't come back until you mess with the one in the WINDOWS folder then it moves that one out into the C:\ and makes a new one in WINDOWS

If you have vista, and delete the folder in C:\Windows, then it will appear in the C:\Users\<your name> folder. Just thought i might want to get that out there. =]

IIRC there is no windows specific code in RS, to determine your username and stuff (for your my documents), im pretty sure that require windows specific code.

the only one i have is in the windows folder =\ you try using I.E. and I think it makes more then one.

Hobbit

2007-08-06 23:36:40

If you modify anything in the file is moves it to the C:\ out of C:\WINDOWS and makes a new one in C:\WINDOWS
