Client crashing upon server selection

Okay, Friday night, I'd logged into CoX just fine, logged out without any problems. Whatsoever.

Tonight, the first time since then, I went to log in, chose Union... crash. Try again... crash. Try a different server... crash. Try running in compatibility mode... you get the idea. It's always smack bang when I choose a server, and I can't understand why. Short of a Windows Update that I probably didn't notice, nothing, as far as I know, has changed on this computer between Friday and tonight. Nothing.

Running Windows XP Pro here.

[EDIT]Just discovered that I can log in fine with my second account. Strange. o.O

Happened again. Seriously ticked off. Log in with my first account, choose a server, ANY server, crash. Doesn't happen with my second account. I can log in fine on that one. It's something on the first one that's not even letting me near the char select screen before croaking on me.

Last time, I 'fixed' this by copying an earlier version back into the game's folder and letting it update to the current one, but I'm really not in the mood for doing that every month. Any ideas? Anyone? Cookie to the winner?

Could send a petition on the second account asking a GM for help/advice about the first account. Seems odd that it's only affecting one account, after all. [/captainobvious]

Stuff it. The petition became a waste of time when they started asking me to check for overheating issues (lolwut?). Just gonna reinstall and endure the update.
