Unable to connect

[lysst]

I get this error message when I start it up:

Minion is unable to connect to the internet. Please check your firewall, security & proxy settings. Please visit our Help & Support page for additional information.

However my internet is definitely working. I put it on the allowed list in Windows Firewall and still get the same message.

Any suggestions on what to do?

I'm running Win7 64-bit with Windows Firewall and Security Essentials.
