Chat windows, bags, chat filters not saving

[Bhuh]

Well, I did a search, and found several threads, and it seems this has been going on since last Oct-Nov. And I was unable to find anything recent. I've tried all the suggestions, saving all windows before logging, making the .ini file read-only, I even went back to the default UI, and it happens with that also. Every time I log in, my changes to chat windows, filters, window positions, etc.

Sorry for not searching first, but I did browse the first few pages of the help and discussion forums and didn't see any current threads on it.

I guess the next step is a fresh reinstall of EQ2, and to see if I can trace it to something with installing a custom UI.
