I am having the exact same problem.

I run Kapersky 3.0 pure, Kapersky shows Minion has all required permissions to run and full access through the firewall
Win 7 64 professional and the windows firewall is off.

I installed Minion in its recommended install path. I have uninstalled and deleted Minion and the .minion file twice now.

I have selected Minion to run as administrator - no luck

ESO is installed in my H directory.

My java is up to date. However this latest version of java has been a big problem because several apps conflict with it now.

Version 7 Update 51 (Build 1.7.0_51b13) standard edition. I have the security settings in java set to the lowest range.

I notice your build number for minion in the xml file is different even though it still says 2.0. I just downloaded mine last night from http://www.esohead.com/ instead of from esoui and I also have win 7 64bit and Kaspersky (similar setup) so maybe they have a more recent build that isn't notated int he version number? I think it also updated when i first launched it. Maybe try dl'g straight from them.

Something isn't allowing Minion to connect to the internet. Either a firewall or anti-virus app?

Minion runs its own version of java in a virtual machine. You don't even need java installed on the system.

Thats because Minion isn't getting past the splash screen which is because it can not connect to the internet to update it self.

If all you are seeing is the splash screen and get no error its because for some reason Minion can not access the internet. What happens if you temporarily disable Kapersky for a second to let Minion load?

Great, now I hope you can re-enable it and enable access for Minion. I'm not familiar enough with AVG but I'm sure there is a way to do it. I use MS Security Essentials on my windows machines.

I tried that earlier, still the same problem. kapersky completely turned off and still stuck on that screen
