Hi, I'm having some weird issues starting up windower since yesterday's maintenance. I play with multiple characters on a multiple monitor setup. At some point after the maintenance yesterday, even with having an active account playing, windower starts crashing on startup. The EXE file in the windower4 folder disappears. I've been reinstalling windower in order to retrieve EXE file. This happens everytime.
After some late night troubleshooting, I found out if I "block all network traffic via Norton firewall" I can get past windower startup and into POL login screen. I would then, obviously, have to "Unblock traffic via Norton firewall" in order to login. This works every time. However, if windower crashes and i have to relog one of my characters, I have to logout all my characters in order to repeat the previous step in order to get past windower startup again.
Here is my crash log (I believe):
