If you just installed Everquest you need to patch it from the real everquest servers, without everquest.exe (should be on your desktop)
Once you patched from EQlive, download
EqPatcher.
Then install
EqPatcher in your everquest directory (should be c:\program files\everquest\) .
Then run patch.exe from there, it will patch your everquest folder for EQemu servers.
Once its patched you have 2 choices :
1) run EQW (warning dont check the checkbox Run patch program) 2.3 (2.35 will not work (last version))
2) go
here
Good Luck !
