Default Freeze on Server Connect

Has anyone run into an issue where sometimes (not always) the game will lock up when you select a server to connect to? Sometimes it prevents me from getting into the game at all.

Things I've tried:
- WinEQ (doesn't really work well for me, and crashes in other places)
- The multi-core/CPU Affinity fix
- Deleting eqclient.ini (sometimes fixes the problem, sometimes not)
- Fresh reinstall (twice)
- Compatibility mode for XP/98/etc.

I've run it both in fullscreen and in windowed mode while connecting. Sometimes I'll see the screen gamma change when I press "PLAY EVERQUEST!" but not always.

Any thoughts? Here's my dbg.txt.

Spinning circle lock up or black screen lock up?

Spinning circle means your computer was doing something else that EQ didn't like and crashes no fix for that.

Some websites make EQ lock up idk if it's flash or java or what but garunteed freeze every time I goto said website. To fix that alt enter works best.
