Authenticator codes on a desktop or laptop
Its good that jagex have a help page telling you how to run winauth from a usb stick but they need to include there what to do if the codes aren't working eg if their clock on their computer is not in sync even if it is cutting and pasting info from the winauth site.
From the previous forum thread on the news post about authenticator being released, the codes not working seemed to be a common problem.
I was lucky as I didn't have a problem, but others were not so fortunate and having info on that help page with the instructions how to run winauth on a usb stick, and a bit of trouble shooting if having problems eg about time synch etc would be helpful as it is all in the same spot and saves people having to go all over the web for help, esp since jagex is suggesting using winaut*.
There is nothing more frustrating than trying to get something running that is recommended and it not working for you, and posting on the forum, and having others laugh at you or having to read thru a looooong thread to find where other users have posted a solution.
