I went through the FAQ and
 

did all it said to do to load it and changed eqhost ect but when i goto login it just sits there trying to login forever how do i correct this?

Plz post your information from Boot5zones.bat, db.ini, LoginServer.ini so that someone can look at them and try to give you a better answer. There's a number of things that could keep you from being able to log in.

EQEmu is not yet working with live, so new players cant play just yet. You have to wait until our code is updated.

It shouldnt be too long though.
