I run 2 accounts using different computers for each. Both are using Win XP.I was playing one account today with no problem. I took a break and was not connected to teh internet for a couple of hours. when I returned I reconnected to the internet and launched both accounts as per normal via station launcher. One logged in without issue while the other could not get past the updater. It annouced an unknown error and said it would retry in 30 seconds. I have not been able to log in on this compter since then.Meanwhile the other account on my second computer was logged in just fine, everything was normal. I changed accounts on the second computer and there was still no problem. After a short period 10-15 min the game crashed. When I tried to log back in I found I had the same problem that I had on my first computer, except the error message was attempting to retry every 5 seconds( instead of 30).Remedies I have tried after looking around the forums:1. Launching via the eq2.exe file. This gets to the updater and stalls without letting me download a file (xpli.dat).2. I uninstalled and downloaded a new version of station launcher. Same error occurs.3. I checked my firewall and it doesnt seem to be blocking eq2 or station launcher. I turned the firewall off and still have the problem.4. I checked to make sure that EQ2.exe was in the location that station launcher wanted it to be. I had to move it to allow this to occur.As both computers went from playing EQ2 fine, to not working (without any software or hardware changes other than the ones I have described), I am suspicious about something in the updating system causing this issue.Are there any suggestions as to what else I might try?

Without doing anything else, the error went away of its own accord.
