Loginwindow crashes ("Can't find dailydealradiantweapon.png"), what?

After I've pressed "Launch" on the launcher the window where you login comes up as susual but it crashes and says it crashes because it can't find a certain file.... called DailyDealCache/DailyDealRadiantWeapon.png.
Anybody recognize this? Why is it searching for a png and what to do?
Same problem here, any fix for this?
Same problem, can't play at all, 100% downtime. Here's the exact error:

The PNG file exists, is readable, but viewing it shows that the bottom of the text is cut off:

It is the only file in that directory. I ran a PackCheck, it didn't help.

Please advise.

EDIT: I've tried deleting the file, it redownloaded itself in the same state, gives same error.

I've come up with a workaround! The PNG file in question is obviously coming in corrupted somehow, although IrfanView is able to display it. Simply replace it with a valid PNG file under the same name. The path is Libraries->Documents->My Games->Path of Exile->DailyDealCache

I used this exact file, it's a screenshot of the error itself, saved as PNG, seems to work:
http://imgur.com/QNE7By3. Save it into that directory, replacing the existing PNG.
I think I did it correctly.
I saved that error picture as it's png type but
under the same name as the file that's broken,
but it doesn't seem to work. I have the same crash!
same problem with the replaced file :(

but error message is different by me

I'VE FOUND A SOLUTION, for me at least.
I deleted the whole folder!
Like...
erik/documents/mygames/pathofexile/dailydealcache/dailydealradiantweapon.png

I deleted the "pathofexile folder" so inclusive the dailydeal folder and the png.

It seems to work properly now!!! If any questions, just ask!
Solved this as well, the image was somehow corrupted, so I just deleted it and it then re-downloaded it on the next launch.
is there anyone with another solution for the problem? :(

I'd like one too.

1) Deleted the folder so it would redownload it.
2) Made a Folder + .PNG file with the correct paths to see if it would bypass the problem.
3) It doesn't even download the Dailydealcache folder with the .PNG.


I'll go outside with my wooden sword, hope it's fixed tomorrow.
