Help! It won't let me update SK! Here's the story: Game updates. I wait to download update, then it says Validating 100%. I close it after about 20 minutes of waiting and now i cant get it to start the update! I have restarted the computer at least 7 times by now, and it ALWAYS says that another one is running, even though there isn't another one. HELP!
Won't let me update!

Try clearing out Java's
Try clearing out Java's temporary internet files from the Java Control Panel (found under the Windows Control Panel as "Java"). There could be a bad file somewhere that causes validation to hang.

But it says only advanced users should mess with that stuff
But it says only advanced users should mess with that stuff, and not advanced in the slightest.

Just make sure that you do
Just make sure that you do not go clicking on things I didn't mention. Follow these and your computer will not spontaneously combust.
- Once in the Java Control Pannel look for the "Settings..." button under the title Temporary Internet Files. Click it.
- In the new window that pops up look for the button labled "Delete Files..." and click this too.
- One last window pops up, make sure both boxes are ticked and click OK.
- Exit the Java Control Pannel.

Tried that,
Tried that, didn't work. Now what do I do?
Before launching SK try making sure that there is no "javaw.exe" process in the task manager.
