Exclamation Important Security Issue! ALL READ [Fire Client]

If anybody is wondering how I am sure about this, my own account has been hacked, but I have recovered it.


Edit:
I have updated the client so that you can now set a password which to encrypt you account info with.
We advise that everyone who uses/used Fire Client to change their Runescape password ASAP.

I advise that everyone who uses the client sets a secure password. Check this thread for information on how to set it up.

I guess in a way I'm lucky that Fireclient won't work on my computer.
