Default I can't save my amended eqhost.txt file.

For some reason my new Gateway (with Vista) will not let me save the amended eqhost.txt file. It reads as follows:

Cannot create the C:\Program Files (x86)\Sony\everquest\eqhost.txt file.
Make sure the path and file name are correct

It then says:

eqhost.txt already exists.
Do you want to replace it?

I hit "yes" and it loops me back to the first error message (above)

I am a casual gamer and have very little skills with computers...please consider that when you post back (and flame me). Thanks

There are other more advanced ways to fix that issue with Vista, but I think the simplest thing that I hear that works is just to delete the eqhost.txt file and then create a new text file and put the needed info in it and save it as eqhost.txt as you should. Then, it should work fine.
