Disabling a firewall is out of the question for me. Hate to say it but consoles are looking better and better all the time. Less bugs, no hackers, no PB. Just needs a keyboard and mouse.
I am getting kicked with it too now. it's comodo 3.8. Pisses me off the little time I get to play games and I get kicked.
Back to PB disabled servers for me I guess

authservername is a read-only cvar and can not be changed without modifiying server files.
We have seen a value of 'cod4master.activhsion.com' many times already.
EDIT:
Found the cracked bin that has it:
85.17.223.2:28960 will not be removed from our blacklist due to multi cracked deetctions. Due to the number of cracked servers that try to stream we are now suspending accounts that stream them as removing the servers alone wasn't sending the message to admins that we don't accept them.
Cracked servers are modified exe's or bins that change the value of authservername so that cod4 / codwaw can't contact the master server to verify cd keys and therefore called cracked servers.
We have been phasing out the badge for a while now and with the newest header we just went all the way :P
Old header was becoming too "messy" so I gave it a more clean, modern look.
No good to whine here about it, we can't do anything about it. 50104 is globally banned by EvenBalance so you will need to take it up with them.

Because it can happen to anyone. Just some people know how and do it at will but what about the player that gets in a wall by accident caused by lag or who knows what.
EA needs to fix it, not us.
