What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Using mc4d-4.0.181.jar with Windows 7.

Please provide any additional information below.
Since it is a JRE class, I have no idea what's going on. Being a java dev 
myself I messed with the jar a little, but it still wouldn't open.

I verified this is a problem with Java7.  From issue 109: "Problem is class 
SynthUI. In Java 6 it is in package sun.swing.plaf.synth, while in Java 7 it is 
in javax.swing.plaf.synth. This causes a NoClassDefFoundError when attempting 
to run with Java 7."

Hopefully we can get this corrected soon.  A workaround in the meantime is to 
uninstall Java7.  Java6, update 32 worked for me.

Hmmm...Okay thanks, I will try that, I had this happen with JRE 6 and 7 latest 
versions of both.
