    maybe it is because youre name is unknow soldier... or isn't it? because i thought that you could get kicked by useing that name.

  5. yea my name when i join the server is "unknown soldier " i can c it in the 3 seconds i'm in. but in my game profile its not "unknown soldier "!?
    how can i change my net name?

    This error is a problem with your OS privileges. You are probably logged onto Windows with limited or non-administrator rights. PunkBuster likes for you to have elevated privvies, so try modifying your windows account to increase your privileges or have someone else do it for you.

    Also, download the manual update for PunkBuster and update your Pb files.

    yeah i was having the same problem with the inadequate o/s. especially in vista this can be a problem if you dont remember to grant the program rights.
