Trouble starting game after 2nd Weapons update

[AndyR]

After typing in my name and password, the game has a heck of a time getting started.

This only started since the 'Weapons' 2nd update.

Symptoms are that the screen goes black, waits, goes back to the desktop, and repeats 10 or 12 times until my pirates page finally shows up.

I'm running Vista (yeah, I know) and in full screen 1920x1600 (whatever the max is).

I've been having a problem very similar to this. The updates must cause the game to have problems processing all the new data, meaning that there would be possibly trouble logging in.
