can you please load up the exe and when it says connecting wait 30 seconds then press alt+tab and see if the window for sky is there.
then try the following please.
bring up notepad and paste the following lines of code
start iexplore -k http://go.sky.com/vod/page/tvListing.do?...login=true
attrib -h -s "Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}"
ren "Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}" Private
echo Folder Unlocked successfully
goto End
:FAIL
echo Invalid password
goto end
:MDLOCKER
md Private
echo Private created successfully
goto End
:End
save as .bat file and run.
It probably wont be logged in but if it goes full screen then your working.
If this works then there must be something wrong with your IE or the internet cache issue.
Double check everything, The version of IE must be 8 or higher.
the cache clearing file has been run first.
when you run the skygo.exe and is says connecting try pressing F5 after 30 seconds and response?

Tried Alt and Tab, No Window.
Pasted script to notepad. This launched skygo to a sample channel (Sky News) So some progress.
Currently running explorer 9 on media pc.

Installed xbmc on my laptop and installed skygo launcher. Worked perfectly first go. Got past "connecting to skygo" to loading... and into skygo webpage with channel fullscreen. (No pictures off course as skygo not activated on laptop) But all of this has given me hope.
Both laptop and media pc both running windows 7. Noticed laptop is running explorer 10. So decided to upgrade media pc to explorer 10. On doing this I noticed that media pc after reinstalling windows 7 this week had not activated itself with Microsoft, therefore had not installed windows 7 service pack1. This maybe my issue.
I have now activated windows and currently installing service pack and other upgrades to media pc.
Fingers crossed this might fix my problem.

Thanks to all who have helped so far. I will report back when upgrade complete.
