Randomly Banned


Matteo2343

Recommended Posts

I recently got two new hard drives and am now currently running them in RAID0. At the same time I recieved Windows 7 x64.

Ever since, I get kicked from every server in COD:WAW (which has PB enabled) within 30 seconds of joining for reason:

""Matteo2343" Punkbuster Permanent Ban issued on this game server for player "Matteo2343"... prior kick/ban".

(I wasn't banned, but kicked, because I can immediately rejoin, but with the same result)

 

I've tried everything to get working including the following:

1. Manually reinstall/update PunkBuster - Client: (v2.215 | A1409) - Server: (v1.761 | A1409 | C2.215)

2. Update COD:WAW to newest version (v1.7)

3. Updated Windows to newest version and service pack

 

Also, i may be running programs such as FRAPS in the background that may be thaught of as a hack. A list of programs that are interpreted as hacks would be greatly appreciated.

But I still get kicked from every server. Any help at all would be greatly appreciated

Are you using steam at all? If so, turn off the overlay by clicking on steam settings > In-Game > Uncheck the box next to "Enable Steam Community In-Game" and save. This is what was kicking me in that game also until I turned it off.

what is the exact message?

 

"Matteo2343 Punkbuster Permanent Ban issued on this game server for player 'Matteo2343'... prior kick/ban"

 

And no, I'm not using steam, It's a retail copy.

just one server or any that you join?

 

what is your GUID? 55055020?

 

normally the last 8 characters of your GUID is included in the message

I haven't been told my guid, and it appearantly isn't ALL the PB enforced servers, only half of them, I don't know why.

My guess is they were the first i visited right after installing windows 7 and COD:WAW on my new hard drives.

Your not banned by PBBans, your ban originates from punksbusted;

 

[PsB:9746 V01E5DBD1] 076d1c99230284bab7a1136b55055020 "Matteo2343" "65.33.184.20" MD5TOOL #9002 (SchoolHackCoD5Multi.exe)

 

You will need to go through their appeal procedure if you think this ban was made in error.

I read through that wiki page and it was VERY helpful.

I found that my problem is very accurately described as "2. PsB AMBL Bans. More commonly known as MBL Bans".

I'm not sure how to prove that i never used hacks other than basic trust, and my best guess how this happened is from account theft...

if it was account theft you need to reformat your computer and check that all your other accounts are not compromised

 

including bank accounts, email, etc

Wow, I didn't think it could get this serious, 2 days after i got my new hard drives and Win 7 norton detected 2 trojans, this may be more serious than i thaught.

I'm running a full scan ATM and may end up reformatting... :(

Step 1: Reformat

Step 2: Install all windows updates after OS install.

Step 3. Install Norton and update right away.

Step 4: Install game and do not give the cd-key to anyone.

Step 5: Do scans once a week to make sure your pc is clean.

Step 6: DO NOT download anything that you are unsure about!
