    It could be a hidden popup behind the window. you could try adding the EXE. to the firewall trusted list and see if the problem goes away.

    I really hope a future version of ESS adds a "silent" mode like bitdefender and the new Norton have.

    Does switching firewall to interactive mode make a difference? The first time you run the game and try to connect to a server, a popup window should appear asking you whether to allow or deny the connection. Once you allow it, you should be able to play the game fine without the firewall interrupting you.
