Swiftkit Hacked
Thread Closed 

#24
Just to write off any bad terms about swiftkit. The client/site itself wasnt actually hacked. Turns out SwiftKits domain registrar allowed access to the domain controls to someone who impersonated one of the swiftkit admins using a fake id to recover the domain thus allowing them to change the dns settings and reroute the domain to their own site

Using the swiftkit client itself posed no risk to your runescape account, it was only accessing the swiftkit.net domain and accepting the java request. If you did accept the java request then its confirmed that "Microsoft Malware Bytes" can detect the malicious files.
