<p>My patcher all of a sudden decided that it would take 20+ mins to anaylze the last 4% of my files.  Once, it get pasts that part it decides to lock up when I click the play button. </p> <p>I played EQ2 last week and the patcher ran fine, it wasn't until yesterday that it decides to take it's sweet time.  I haven't downloaded, installed or altered any programs between the times.  The only thing I did was move a few everquest files I had on my desktop and groped them into another folder on my desktop.</p> <p>Don't know if this helps, but the files that it takes 20+ mins to anaylze are: assetdb.dll, (some kind of battlegrounds file perhaps .mp3?), and LP_Diagnostics.  Those were the ones I noticed what the patcher was analyzing but might not be all since I didn't want to set there in frustration for like 20+ minutes.  Keep in mind, after the long wait, it is finally done and decides to freeze on me when I click the play button.<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="file:///C:/Program%20Files%20%28x86%29/Sony/EverQuest%20II/assetdb.dll"></a></span></p><p>Things I've tried:  First, my computer won't let my defrag, it just goes into an infinite loop; but, I have tried disabling all my firewalls and security.</p>

<p>Did you have to add any exceptions to your firewall or AV program to get the game to play?  If you did, then remove them and then add them again.  If the launcher changed in a patch, then your system will not recognize it.</p><p>...  and that is about all that I have for you (take notice that I am not a TSR) other then perhaps try to remove those files and then repatch it to see if it fixes itsef...</p>
