No, tried all of that, no difference.

Yes, that works fine.
Also paste those URL's onto your desktop - do they work from there ?
You mean create an URL shortcut on the desktop? Yes, that also works fine.
- Adjust metadata download settings to be Goodreads only, now do a metadata download on a book you know is on Goodreads - does it work ?
I don't have goodreads under metadata downloads sites - can I get it there automatically somehow or do I need to set something specific there?
(Going to Preferences -> Metadata Downloads)
Those tests should be enable you to isolate the underlying cause of your problem - maybe you could post the results and your conclusions here.
