After playing for about a week I believe I have finally fixed my Zoning issue!!
I use Windows 7 Pro 64-bit. I have taken the advice of many on these posts to run things in Windows XP Service Pack 2 Compatibility Mode as well as Run as Administrator. But at first I had only applied it to WinEQ2.exe (or EQEmu.exe depending on if I was checking for patches). Then yesterday I decided to try that on a couple other files as well. I knew that WinEQ2 had to start EverQuest using it's executable, so I went to the EverQuest directory and found eqgame.exe and applied the same Compatibility Mode changes to that. I also saw an EverQuest.exe, which I also made the Mode changes to.
Now I can zone multiple times and it loads every time! I tested it a bunch yesterday, and I have had NO problems today either.
I don't think that this will help everyone with their crashing, I wish it could, but maybe a couple people out there will have some luck.
By the way, this is all on my work computer, which is a Dell Precision T3500 tower. It has an Intel Xenon single core (dual with hyperthreading) processor and an nVidia Quadro 295. Not really a gaming machine, but can handle EQ.

Don't forget to run the actual EqEmu shortcut under admin mode as well, by right clicking everytime you run the short cut and selecting "run as administrator" as well as doing everything quoted above, or else it doesn't work.
If you do everything, it does seem to fix the issue.
