Activision use a new server: cod4master.activison.com [216.8.179.23]. If you can't still connect to your server, disconnect from the internet (if you have a router switch it off), and reconnect. Without the disconnect CoD4 tried to resolve the name to the old address, tracert shows the new.

For me it looks more like a problem with the server cod4master.activison.com (63.146.124.21). I can't reach it. The last server I can see is los-edge-01.inet.qwest.net [205.171.32.38]. annex-3560g-a-gi0-28.activision.com [209.3.124.229) seems to be dead.

I can't find any further informations on the Nvidia Page about the patch. As long it is not official I don't want to patch my server with this patch. Do you have another link than this download link?

use the link I have posted before.

PB_SV_ExtChar [0/1] The default setting of 0 tells PunkBuster to disallow extended ASCII Characters in player names; for the purposes of this command, characters that cannot be easily entered with simple keystrokes are considered extended The underscore is part of the standard ASCII table - shouldn't be a problem. What's the kickreason he can read on his screen? #111 is Bad Name (Extended ASCII Characters). If you set it to 0 you might have some trouble if you want to kick players by name and not by slotnumber.
