For reference the actual URL in the binary is "https://soe-ing.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/soe_ing.cfg/php/enduser/std_alp.php?" (for UF at least), help.soe.com is a redirect. The client also appends a bunch of GET/POST stuff onto it -- character name, race, level, server shortname, etc. Switching out the URL and accounting for the GET/POST (at least enough for a normal browser to not 404) just gets me a flickery black screen in-game.
