It is most likely the UAC that is preventing you from changing the eqhost file. Copy the eqhost.txt to your desktop then make the changes..afterwards copy/paste it back to the everquest directory.

For some stupid reason the overwriting of files is allowed by UAC but not the modification of an existing file. How one way is a mod and the other is not is beyond me.
