I've never had this problem, but I rolled Java back to Java 6 and the game has crashed a lot less often ever since.

Its not that it crashes, I can't get into the game at all, when I click on salem or updater (ender client) it gives me the error

Give java 6 a try if you haven't already.

I googled around about this out of curiosity, there are several theories, the one that sounds the most legit is possible malware. So besides a virus scan (I assume you're using windows), click on the little windows button in the bottom left corner and under 'run' type "msconfig" This will open up a tool for tinkering a bit with things, click the Startup tab and uncheck "wjview.exe” and “javaw.exe.” and restart. This just keeps those 2 files from running when your computer starts up.
If msconfig isn't there it can be downloaded and ran, but that's getting a bit deeper into things than I feel comfortable giving advice on.
Good luck, man.
