OK, here's the problem.

Last week (during the stats outage) while playing on my clans server at least two maps, Jalalabad and Wake didn't work (Karkand DID) as they kept on kicking me off with that 'your versions not right right revert to the official version...' type message.  So after doing a little searching around I found various threads about this problem relating to an earlier patch (might have been 1.20, I'm fully updated with 1.41), some people suggested re-patching and some people said it was due to Punkbuster not updating properly, so after re-patching with 1.41 and searching around I found the stand-alone Punkbuster updater and updated my Punkbuster, which was out of date and whoo-hoo it worked I could play again, all maps including Jalalabad, Wake and Karkand

Now today (stats back on line), I'm trying to play Karkand (the map that worked on my clans server) and boo-hoo I can't get because of the same error, so I thought maybe it's this Punkbuster thing again so I've re-patched the game with the 1.41 patch, and I also ran the Punkbuster updater again, just to be on the safe side, and..... boo-hoo again, I still can't play.

Does anyone have any ideas why this is happening, becuase I'm close to slapping the <bleep> out the game or something.  Or am I going to have to completely remove the game and re-install everything again from scratch.

AFAIK not everyone is not updating.

not every server runs the same patch, there are still a few old servers out there, make sure the "same version" option is marked.

I installed them yonks ago, and I'd already followed the pattern of BF2>Special Forces>Patch>EF>AF>Patch again

@S.Lythberg: The clan server I'm using is running the same version
