it is possible to join via Xfire
1. rename pr to bf2 in battlefield 2\mods\pr
2. go to the Xfire options and change the game path
youll get a black screen, but just wait a moment
IPs for Pr servers
*join a server through the Xfire server browser. i would copy an IP from game-monitor and add it in the favourites list in the Xfire server browser.
** forget this, its working now

i did when you click on the pr icon on desktop and you get the black screen just put your computer in stanby mode the vids will load and the login screen when you log it (seems like it takes a longer time then normal...) and boom your in. some times it will freeze up.
