Is it possible you have 2 eq installs? That's the only way (if you saved) that you could be connecting to public after replacing eqemu login with your local ip
Do a search on your entire computer for the eqhost file and see what pops up
Better yet: right-click the eqgame shortcut you are launching from and check it's target, then go to that target and find the eqhost file and open it to check. You can do this easily by right clicking the shortcut and selecting open target location.
You also have to redo the shortcut from that folder once you are sure it is set right and SAVED, to be sure the shortcut you are clicking from desktop or wherever, is going to the correct emu install. I have backups of backups of my emu folder, then a public login folder and lan login folder, probably 6 copies of alive as well, and everyone of them has their own shortcut. You should probably rename the shortcut itself (created directly from inside the eq folder that you are sure the eqhost file is correct in) to EQLAN or something to be extra sure it's the right one before moving it elsewhere.
