Sky have lawyers that would come down on anyone heavily that did, the same as they would if anyone publicly hacked Videoguard. so in short unless you 'hack' & write a new EPG yourself you wont get one.
If you reply to a post that's 7 months old without making any allowances for discussion we've had since, you're bound to to get confused. Although I suspect getting confused is something that comes easily to you.
