Default How do I know if I'm patching live or not?

I followed the instructions in the Play Guide by modifying the EQHost.txt file to point to "Host=eqemulator.net:5998" and added patchme onto the target in the exe shortcut. I did this before ever running everquest (and thus never before patching). I run the shortcut I created and it shows the SOE screen and downloads a bunch of files, then what looks like a live patcher comes up and it asks me for my station name. I tried the name I made in step 3 anyway (the login server account) and it said it was invalid. I tried making a station name and then logged in and it said I wasn't signed up for EQ, asked if I wanted to do a trial (confirming that it IS the live patcher).

I understand that I'm going to have to uninstall/install again before I can get this to work, by my question is what did I do wrong? I looked through the forum/wiki a bit but I didn't see anyone mentioning this problem. The only thing that I can think of is that I did not install everquest to the default file location (Mine is in F:\Everquest rather than C:\ProgramFiles\Sony\Everquest). Would this matter? Am I totally missing something?

Edit: And I AM using Titanium, not another version.
