PB error Message:

You have been kicked via punkbuster (for 0 mins)
Ristrictions: Blocked O/S Privileges :508 : 430 :

I was playing and while a round was loading I went for a smoke like usual and then I come back to get this error message, I think nothing of it and try to join another server. Still the same message. I then try about 3-4 more servers and same message. So I decided to restart my computer and do it again. I get the same thing everytime. 508 and 430 sound like port numbers to me but I just can't see why. I don't cheat nor hack so that's not the prob and I was just wondering if anyone new how to fix it. I went to www.punkbuster.com for updates and couldn't find any. It was working for about and hour and a half or so before it happend. Do you think I've been hacked ? I'm going to see if any other of my online games work then maybe it has to do with my modem/router. Help would be greatly apreciated.

Usually that means that you are not the admin account on your windows XP OS. But as it worked 1.5 houres fine before that it's strange indeed. Did it happened again after reboot?

yes, I think I've been hacked and my os was blocked by some random noob. I'm reinstalling the game tonight and patching it up tommorow after I get off work. Strange indeed. oh, I am the admin on this computer so that's not the prob either I will find out tommorow, if I've been tampered with.

grr if it is an ip add. block I don't think I need to reinstal when I already did. Might have to call the cable company to ge a new ip or something who knows.....

Edit: wierd account showed on my computer. I normally have just me on there and a guest but I checked and the account user name was..

ASP.Net Machine A's

Never seen that before as it just showed up with in a couple of weeks.

Strange how a pop up blocker would kick you from an online game but if it's a solution, it's a solution

About the ASPnet account, it's not hacked, but placed there by windows if you installed net1.1 (creates an account that doesn't has admin rights). You can delete it, unless you develop projects in ASP.net

IF you are on the admin account and you still get it, try to disable some security things like virusscans, spyware checkers, Proces guard?... (try to remember what you installed lately) cause one of your programs must be blocking PB's access probably.

Are you using XP or Vista? If XP, which service pack?
