Re: Punkbuster Problems
Same thing happened to me yesterday.
I reinstalled my anti-virus software (norton 360) and then it worked.

Re: Punkbuster Problems
I've had this problem for a long time now, only mine was with punkbuster B.
I looked at the PB site to see if I could just reinstall it, nope. I downloaded their PB Services program, didn't work either. And I have even installed a whole new AV program.
Basically, the first time I load up PR or any BF2 mod I just join a random server, let it dump me, then proceed to joining my intended play server. I never have issues with it after that.
If someone does find a solution, I'd love to hear it.
EDIT: I'm running Win XP Pro SP3
