I tried renaming the eqhost.ini to .bak and it worked temporarily. However when I restarted it went back to the number sequence and now there is no eqhost.ini and only an eqlhost.ini

Dude, I seriously think you have a virus...maybe a rootkit. Go run Combofix

And then Malwarebytes

I meant it was binary in the computer. From there it is either a one or two byte set of binary values that are passed to the display routine in the operating system that creates the graphic images that are the letters you see. If it was a different character set ... never mind, that isn't what is happening in your case.

Did you buy the client or...

The file is an ISO I have had for sometime that worked in the past with eqemu. It is a titanium version.

I may be wrong here, but is the "Platinum" client compatable with emu?

I thoiugh it had to be titanium, steam UF etc, maybe wrong, but a thought?

sorry ignore -- was reading earlier post ---

Yep, Sticky Keys could be on.

Nope, no sticky keys.

Ok, so I removed the previously installed antivirus programs, ran combofix, ran malwarebytes, disabled protection and still it is doing the numbers game. Any ideas?

Before you do that, replace the client. Uninstall the old one. Do not re-install it. Get a DIFFERENT one and install that one. Since you only have this problem with the EQ client I think it is safe to assume that either it or the iso file you used to install it has been corrupted or infected.

I concur. If everything else is working, it points to the client. Honestly I would use Underfoot anyway, it is superior to Titanium IMHO.

Set te text READ ONLY see if changes should not change can be a fix to.

Hm I would like to use Underfoot but it seems all the downloads are corrupted. I am not sure that the steam version would be compatible with my iso's.

How are you using the iso files? What do you mean "incompatable with your iso's?"
