Getting "please run everquest.exe"

[Phobos]

I did, this isn't a connection problem. The shortcut isn't working right. In the guide, it told me that the cause of this error is mostly the fact that people forget to add "patchme" to the end of their shortcuts. After lurking through a few threads, I haven't found a solution. All i've seen is that all most people do is refer you to "one of the many guides or faqs." It would be appreciated if you could point me to said guide, or just tell me the answer to my question, oh High and Mighty One.
