A couple things:

1. You cannot use the default shortcut to launch P99. You either need to use the bat file included in v36 or create a shortcut to eqgame.exe and append the target path with patchme.
2. Adaware, Avast and McAfee (and likely others too) identify a P99 dll as malware and will quarantine and/or delete it. The file is required to play, so you will need to restore it and make an exception in your antivirus/malware protection or turn it off when you launch EQ.

I hope this helps ^^

Maybe check with the tech forums too.
