Guild Wars 2

First it asked me to select some un-gaming related prize, then it says I won something asked me for address and last it says something about Win 7 …. Is this really GW2, got it got hacked ?

Now it’s this…. Anyone else experiencing this ?

Looks like you have malware/virus on your computer that’s interacting with browsers. Since the gem store is a browser it might interact with that too and display things like that.

I’d suggest that you scan your computer.

That looks like a browser hijack specifically targeted for GW players, I’m not implying you tried to download hacks of some sort, but you definetly clicked on something you shouldn’t. The path in the second picture “C:\ArenaNet[..]” is not a path used by Guild Wars, but it’s for the hack to disguise itself as legit.

If a scan doesn’t detect anything I’d recommend wiping your OS and regardless of what you do activate a 2-way authenticator to make sure nobody rips your account.

It’s malware……..

ReImage PC Repair Online is a system optimizer utility, which is promoted via other free downloads, and once installed it claims that several issues were been detected on your computer.
However, if you try to fix these issues, ReImage PC Repair Online will state that you need to buy its full version before being able to do so.

Google for how to remove it. (Google is your friend).

Wiping your O/S won’t help.

Many thanks guys, used Norton Anti Virus, it seems like its gone now … I wonder what caused it, I didnt even know GW2 got some cheats and stuff . ~

It wasn’t GW2 it was something you downloaded, and it may not be gone.

GW2 doesn’t — this malware hijacked all your browsers, including the TP inside GW2 (which, as explained by others above, is a browser).

Yup, possibly you installed something that came shipped with malware. Never, I said, NEVER, go clicking “Next” on installers without reading stuff. As stated above it could be some malware that hijacked browsers and GW2 uses a build-in browser for Gem Store. Possibly it had nothing to do with GW2 itself, it was interested in your browsers.

To correct a thing here. The path showed in the second pic refers to a path in Anet servers or some internal path built-in the game, not your local machine (although it looks like a local path), I have seen that path before when Gem Store was having hiccups. Obviously something went wrong then the game/server couldn’t find the proper page.
