Today I was playing SK, normally no different than usual. But 1/3 through the vicious and viscous mission, the game displayed Java Platform SE Binary has stopped working. It gave me the option to close the game or wait for it to respond. I waited an hour for it to respond and it didn't. I then closed the game and reopened it. It said "logging in" on the log in screen then nearly immediately froze and said it wasn't responding.
Note: I am on the steam version and have tried uninstalling and reinstalling.
EDIT: It now runs normal, strangely enough. It started working after I updated my Java version. I think this very well may be the fix for a lot of players. I noticed it said to be running the most recent update of Java in the System Requirements page. Hope this helps...
