It happened once when I flew PHL-FRA, it was the worst 7 hours of my life).
Wow, I'm shocked that the US system would let you book that seat. The only route that I know of where it is actually available for seat assignments is back and forth to SJU. Where are you going in Europe? Are you sure it's a 330?
I would just hate for you to get to the airport and find out they had relocated you to some crappy seat when you could have selected a better one on your own. Hope it all works out for you and have a great trip!
