When you installed the View 4.5 Agent did you make sure that the PCoIP components were selected?

If you already installed the PCoIP components - as Mike suggested - and it still does not work, try disabling any firewalls.

BTW: What is the VM's OS and which OS is on the client from which you try to connect.
