Meh. I have a similar problem, although it is much scarier. Fresh install and whatnot, get to where I can create a character, but cannot enter the world. Argh.
For you it's possibly simpler. Check your firewalls? Is that persistent windows firewall bugging you? Did you set up Zone Alarm properly? Is your router configured to work well? Or are you stuck in eternal firewall damnation behind the ultimately nasty public facility/university firewall to which you lack the administrative privileges?
It's always a place to look, if you ask me. Firewalls are a common problem anymore, since the good ol' happy and secure days of 5 1/4" floppies are over. I have no idea in truth, though, but since you can't actually log in to the server, then it could be a place to start.
Oh, and if you're at a university and its a firewall problem, odds are that you will be putting away your EQ CD's and uninstalling 'till next year. Which won't be too long, since it's almost summer now...
