For the last week, I have been crashing while zoning quite a bit. I found a post online that seems to have helped address this problem. If you are having similar issues, then feel free to give this a try.
I do NOT guarantee this to solve your problems.

In your userdata directory (subdirectory of your EQ installation), move all of your CJ*.* files to a temp directory.
Login to EQ.
If you are using the default keymapping, press ALT+J to open your journal and disable it.

I am still testing it, but so far the zone crashing has ceased.
Just an idea to try for those of you that are frustrated.
the Only time I have been crashing is when I accept the rez from NTov...
Hmm anyone know what those CJ* files are for? Cuase for some reason i have a whole heck of a lot of them.
Journal entries. They record every text message from the NPCs you interact with. Useful if you do quests and need to re-read something. I think it's one of the lag suspects in dungeons when you get mob aggro text from 4 or 5 mobs and it tries to write them to disc, causing a momentary pause.
