Yesterday i was playing fine but today i can't open my game through icons.
Most likely Java is not pointed to the game directory in the shortcut you're using.
Check the properties of the shortcut you have to make sure that the "start in" directory is the one the game is installed in (where getdown-pro.jar is that it can't find). On Windows Vista/7 that would usually be ":\Users\\AppData\Roaming\Three Rings Design\Spiral Knights".
If you're using an old shortcut or have moved the game directory or the shortcut itself this could explain why it's doing this.
