I got something similar: I called up the game (for the first time), a nice dragon image appeared and - nothing.

After a while I found out what the heck is going on: the system insists on starting in full screen. And then tries to access the net.

Whereupon my ZoneAlarm tool (which is used by quite a few people I dare say) pops up a query - do I allow it to access the net?

Unfortunately, the query is hidden under Elementals full screen... irritating.

Possible solution: show a smaller start screen, starting it as a frame. That way, ZoneAlarm could display its question, get it answered, and let Elemental run free...

Is that the only one that was there? That one is from very early in the beta. If your crash today created one, it'll be named Elemental1_00-2010-08-23--, etc.

Well...

The game updated itself today. Now, when I try launching it, a windows appears with three options (Play, Update, Manual).

Too bad that if I click on Play the games behaves exactly like yesterday.
