New update causes GUILD WARS to freeze
With XFIRE installed Guild Wars will freeze at the loading screen for some cities.
To replicate on Win7 x64 Home Prem.
1. Make sure xfire is loaded and upto date.
2. Launch Guild Wars (for me it always launches in the Guild Hall because that is where I park my charectors).
3. Press M for the map.
4. Select Kamadan or Lion's Arch.
5. The loading screen will reach 100% and stay there.
You will hear the sounds and music for the city it just will not display. None of the dialog boxes will popup when the hot key is pressed.
I had to exit the game by clicking the X. I also tried with two accounts at the same time. The issue only affected the instance of the game that xfire was tracking.
Here is the build info:
Version 1.146 Build 45177
Feb 3 2012 at 01:04:35
XFIRE_LANG_US Build 45177
XFIRE_GAMES.INI Version 45177
XFIRE_TOUCAN Build 45177
DEV_GAMES.INI Not loaded
I will add in the diagnostic log in a bit.
Edit: I really hope the code command works. Log file added to post.
Edit II: Nope, and I can't post enough of the log file for you to see what happened so let me know where or how to post it for you. I tried to post more of the log in the post below, it only holds about 20% of it so it's not worth posting until I have a place to post it. And yes, it shows several failures.

That sucks... The code command does not work and most of the log was cut off...

RE: New update causes GUILD WARS to freeze
I have noticed that guild wars is still getting a lot of hours logged so I figure it must be something I have installed that is not working correctly. As a note I am using Cat: 12.1. I think I am going to backup to 11.12 and see if that fixes the issue.

Fix it. The issue is caused by Cat 12.1. Moving back to 11.12 fixed the issue.

Video drivers for AMD/ATI video cards are referred to as Catalyst some people reduct that down to Cat.
Anyway, the issue is not fixed entirely. It has happened once since I stepped bacy to version 11.12.
