My uni got hit by the worm/virus/crap that's going around, and i'm about to pull some hair out (and possibly not my own, either).
Connectivity is a massive issue; I LD'ed twice while guild was fighting to Xana in poi. The entire time I was playing last school year, my connection meter, the numbers in the middle, rarely hit 3pct, and almost never 6pct. Now, 20 is an insanely good number; some of the time I'm at 35, mostly 45-65.
The point of the above is to illustrate that I cannot place the real problem in the question below.
When I run my EQ Patcher to start the game, it asks me if I want to DL any new LDON files. I've always chosen yes. It's never been a problem before.
NOW, when I try to DL files, the patcher starts to get guk.mp3.... and freezes.
I started it this morning before I went to class. 3 hours later, it wasn't done. NO PROGRESS had been made. Furthermore, I have to CTRL ALT DEL and chose to End Process on everquest.exe or whatever, else I can't even reopen the patcher.
Where does it sound like the problem is? The POUS connection? Or is something broken with my patcher somehow?

who just wants things to freaking work the right way, the first time around. At very least, the second. Is it really too much to ask?
