It's caused by server instability most likely. They could be stress testing their servers since they just sent out a bunch more beta invites.

What time do you usually play? Try playing it during off times. I have issues with it around 10-4pm est.

Try to manually update your PB and see if it works. It could also be a firewall causing it so you could try to disable them. I know zonealarm / McAfee doesn't agree with punkbuster.

I had a similar problem, try changing the compatibility of your internet browser to run in administrator mode if you run vista.

Have you tryed it on different characters?

I looked up the error, it's related to PB, so hopefully updating it will fix it.

People who were using aimbots before the last patch have started seeing the message too.

phiser bot "PB" likes to sniff through all your files, so no wonder anti virus and firewalls don't like it. i don't like it either, god knows what crap it is lifting off your system...
