This made my life much easier in everquest. Enjoy

Install ACT (Application Compatibility Toolkit) from either the Windows XP CD, located in the Support\Tools Directory, or it can be downloaded from the following link:

http://download.microsoft.com/download/ ... t30pkg.exe

Install and run the compatability tool. On the left you'll see a list of applications. Find everquest and click it. In the right window will appear a list of eq-related applications. Right-click the top one and select "Diable Entry". You should now be able to alt-tab in and out of everquest without having to do all that alt-shift-r garbage

edit: This is completely legit as the inablility to alt-tab is a limitation of winxp and not everquest

On the third try I finally got a good connection (88 m/sec) and downloaded the package.
