A popular free, open-source and super fast client for Old School RuneScape

1. Additionally I am unable to download the runescape which opens from the desktop (it says 'unable to create target applet', then closes). Has anyone had this issue? What can I do to fix the problem?
2. Java Client The Java client has been removed. Make sure you’ve upgraded to the NXT client. Java was a wonderful home for RuneScape for many years, but the need to split our attention across both the older RuneScape Java client and the newer NXT client for desktop and mobile has meant the latter has evolved slower than we would have liked.
