Instant crash after intro. (3.3)

Haven'd had a single crash before 3.3.0c.
When i try to pick a character to login with i only get these errors.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Exception

Then the game shuts down..
this is unbelievable lmao.
guess that's about it, i won't be refreshing this forum everyday to hope for a solution.
man, this is bullshit, over 2 weeks have passed and still cant play.
Any player can design a build that works,
but it takes a casual player to design a build that barely works.
It is working for me now.
During the trailer I am performing a single click to cancel the trailer.
The trailer freezes for 10-20 seconds, then I can see the LogIn screen,
another 10 secons freeze, then I can choose my gateway, login & play.

Short version: click once during the ggg intro, then wait.
I did that since day one, still crashed. I appreciate this issue seems to be getting attention, but I'm pretty much just gonna be playing Hollow Knight until the next league I guess.
Yep same, it's a shame since i've been craving PoE so much with all the changes and yet... i can't play. welp this sucks.
bump again.

Bump
Another observation/coincidence:

Today it crashed again after the intro. Then I realized that I rebooted my machine today and spybot (at least the taskbar application) was running in the background.
Two days ago I terminated this programm in an attempt to make PoE working again.
I terminated it again, and voila: PoE is working again.

I have tried to find any spyware/malware via Malwarebytes, none found, seems mine issue is not related to this in any way.
