I recently downloaded Minecraft 1.6.2 launcher today, then I logged in. I went to start playing, and it loaded, but it didn't open the game launcher. This is the error I received when doing so:

Help me!

I have some suggestions.
1. Restart PC. I always try this first.
2. Try launching Minecraft again if you have not already.
3. Try updating Java. Click here!
Sorry if this does not work, but I hope it helps
