I was on SL last night all was fine. This morning i go to log on, didnt even get to that point. As soon as i opened SL, I got a 2nd window of DOS w/ a slew of warnings and texture dumps and all kinds of other info. Initially it sent me the crash logger which couldnt connect to the server. After this though i attempted again, got the same 2 SL windows, one of SL itself and again another in DOS. SL actually seems to have started okay,but if i try to close the DOS window it closes the SL window as well. I've never seen this before wondering if anyone else has. Is my version of SL corrupted? Should i delete SL and try a fresh install?

I am editing to add, something that concerns me greatly. One warning i recieved was, SOMEONE HAS TAKEN OVER YOUR EXCEPTION HANDLER. Now i'm totally freaked out.

In the Second Life window, open the Advanced menu and deselect the Console Window option. Then restart Second Life to get rid of it.

If you don't have the Advanced menu showing, press Control Alt D, if that fails, try Control Alt Shift D .

The error message is harmless, despite sounding bad.
