Unable to reconnect

Since yesterday's update, I am completely unable to reconnect to SK after a d/c. I have had others test it with similar results. I find I have to reclient the game a fair amount (same as Y!PP... java memory issues on Vista 64), and currently can not 100% of the time. It would occasionally fail before and make me wait fifteen minutes for my character to idle out before getting back in... now it just never picks up the socket.
I suspect this is the same issue Spoonio lists on this forum, with his 18 minutes of play time. He must have disconnected immediately following character creation and been unable to log back in until the game idled him out.
I've opened support issues regarding this issue happening here and there before, but to never be able to pick up a disconnected session (forced or otherwise) is a huge problem.
This is a known bug with the last patch. We'll try to get a fix out as soon as possible.
