netstat -ano

And look for port :9000, if anything is using 9000 and eqemu service are off then something has taken over that port, blocking the world.

If there is nothing using it, launch your emu as normal(assume bat file) then try the netstat again and see if anything is atttaching to port :9000 typically on 127.0.0.1

Yeah looks like something is using it.



Edit 1: Let me restart just to be sure nothing funny is happening and re run test.

Edit 2: Ah I figured it out with help from https://secure.dslreports.com/faq/9444 I found that my twonky server is using port 9000. Let me turn that off and try your next step!

Edit 3: OOOOOOHHH yeah I can log in to the game finally!! Thank you rencro so much that was making my head hurt, something so simple!

You can use the "Windows Task manager" to determine what program is using it by comparing the "pids" on the "Details" tab if using windows8

oops-- in before edit 2 above , anyways for future reference...
