I am literally gobsmacked at the amount of bullshit being shoveled around trying to cover over the basic fact.
Yeah, don't let facts or technical knowledge get in the way of your hyperbole and paranoia! The reason you're "gobsmacked" is because you know fuckall about software, but for some reason you've decided that knowledgeable people telling you

No, one program runs on your computer. Go start Everquest right now. Then go to your process list using Alt+Ctrl+Del. You see that single process called eqgame.exe? Yeah, that's the one program that runs. WinEQ2 may be running as a child process if you use it.

If you have Windows 8 or 10, you can also see what processes are accessing the network card and how much bandwidth they are using. When you only run EQ, do you see any other processes using bandwidth? No? Then that means that the only thing accessing the internet at the time (outside of your operating system) is the EQClient. No other programs are running.

You are basically enabling a program, that you have ***ZERO*** control over that it actually runs!
I don't even know how to approach this stupidity. What does this even mean? You have control over numerous aspects of the program, like if it runs or not. That's what the little red X in the top right corner of the screen is for.

Internet 101 people. The guides and gm's here are blowing so much smoke they make Admiral Poindexter look like Gilligan.
What is Internet 101? What the fuck are you even talking about? You haven't even touched on any actual network aspects of the issue. You've just spouted a bunch of nonsense then acted as if you said something coherent. Your ignorance is astounding.
