Search is amazing...did you try ALL of these steps? Is it started as a service? What error message? Spec's of your system?

1. Manually update your punkbuster using pbsetup.exe (just to be safe)

2. Download pbsvc.exe from PB.

3. Run it, select the uninstall option.

4. Run it again, select the install option.

5. Reboot if you want, just in case. I didn't and it worked fine for me.

PBSVC: http://www.evenbalance.com/downloads/pbsvc/pbsvc.exe

Eureka......your antivirus is not allowing punkbuster to access the internet.....Do you know how to allow programs via your antivirus? If not, What antivirus are you using?

*edit* Show the message that your antivirus gives....SS it and post the pic...

Sigh...

What version of McAfee is it? Again, I cant guess dude!!! If you tell me what Ver. your using, i can tell you how to allow PB access, thus allowing you to play. When you get home, start BF2 as normal, when it stops, take a SS so i can see the message telling you its blocked. Start McAfee, go Help/About and copy down the version, that way i can see the Ver. Post them back here.

Hey, to play bf2... simply turn off McAfee and firewall.
Shut them down for the game, then turn them back on when you are done... problem solved.

Good man..

Right-click the McAfee icon, click Personal Firewall, click Internet Applications. That will bring up a list of applications accessing the net. Scroll through and look for anything to do with PB..ie PnkBstrA.exe/PnkBstrB.exe click them and check its allowed...if not allow it and you should be good to go.

If still no luck, try Right-click the McAfee icon, click Set Security Level, choose Trusting Security.
