I downloaded the 3.4 zip file for Windows, unzipped it to C:\, and execute C:\netbeans\bin\runide.exe. The splash screen displays and then immediately a window pops up with title "Unexpected Exception" (see attached screenshot). The same repeats with runidew.exe. I've attached tthe ide.log file as requested in the error window. This repeats all the time. OS: Windows NT (4.00.1381, IE 5.6.0.2600.0000). Don't know what processor, but maybe someone can decifer this: x86 Family 6 Model 8 Stepping 6.
