I have also tried the Yabsie hack to no avail. Is there really no alternative for getting Netflix onto XBMC without having to resort to paying for PlayOn?.

I recently found the NetFlix Yabsie hack which opens a web browser from XBMC which I tested on my main PC and works great. However, on the HTPC I am building, I get to Queue:All and I just see a blank default screen, the web browser never opens. Does anyone know why the browser fails to launch?
I've tried re-installing, copying the files from my main PC to my HTPC, and nothing seems to work. My HTPC has Microsoft Silverlight installed as well as all of the Windows Updates.
Here is the link to the XBMC NetFlix - Yabsie download:

If you are on windows 7, get netflix official plugin installed on the PC. Then create a shortcut to start WMC with Netflix on startup. Then use the hotkeyp app to create a keyboard shortcut for the winidows media center netflix shortcut. Finally assign that shortcut to your remote button.
I have mine mapped to the ps3blumote and with the press of the red button, I go to windows desktop for a second and walla netflix pops up with full controls. Works perfect. When done. I have a shortcut of ALT+F4 mapped and that takes me back to XBMC.
Its like using xbmc for everything and netflix official for netflix. I had purchased windows 8 and had tested the metro netflix but the wmc version of netflix works very well. Guess its learning. had to buy windows 8 and windows 7 which wasn't fun. If anyone wants help I can be more descriptive.

I'm satisfied other than the fact that the remote support in the Netflix metro app is lacking. 100 times better than playon, which I'm sadly using for hbogo.
