EQ2 Client Applicationg and MSVCRT40.dll error

[adamyesme111]

Everquest 2 was running fine even this morning, until later in the day I ran the patcher (it was only a two minute patch) and after that everytime I tried to run the game I would get the

dwwin.exe-Unable to Locate Component

X-This application has failed to start because MSVCRT40.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.

I looked online and most people said to just download a new MSVCRT40.dll file ...so I did and I put it in my C:Windows:System folder

Now when I run it it says the EQ2 Client Application has encountered a problem and needs to close.  We are sorry for the inconvenience.

I have no idea what lead to this happening, besides me running the Station Launcher..I have looked on many different forums and tried some things already like deleting my cache,and turning the modem off for 30 seconds.  I run on a Windows XP.

Here is my crash report:
