I have been told this program is compatible with Vista Media Center (64-bit)
Someone has created an add-in for media center that allows watching BBC iplayer/Hulu, but you need to find your own proxy software.
When using this program in IE, it works perfectly, but when I run the add-on in media cetner, HULU tells me I have to be in the US

Here is a link to the current Program Compatability List:

I have just brought this product and have received 3 days free of premium service.
According to the compatibility list, with the premium service, this program will work in Vista Media Center.
Unfortunately, I cannot get this to work.
I am using 2 different add-ons for Media Center: TunerFreeMCE and Secondrun.tv to access Hulu
Both of them state I have to been in the U.S. to view video, although I can access Hulu fine view IE.
Do I need to send a request for the add-ons to be added to the compatibilty list

I don't know if these add-ons require the use of additinal port numbers.
Request that they be put on the compatibility list and let's see if the programmers determine if it is workable or not.

Not sure if they will be added as they do not appear to have exe's, they have .mcl (Media Center files)

Whenever a person is using Hide My IP 2009 and you're getting a response from a web site that seems to indicate that they're "seeing" your real IP, then chances are you need to delete your cookies of that website before returning there.

Sorry for the delay. I have just finished re-installing my system.
I haven't gone on the Hulu site since re-install of my system, and HideMyIP still isn't working via Vista Media Center for the add-ons: TunerFreeMCE or Secondrun.tv

From this end, there doesn't seem to be any reason why it is not working for you.

Write to staff@hide-my-ip.com with all of the details. Make sure you include enough information so that they can test the issue for themselves and give you a series of recommendations.
