fozzer Posted June 26, 2005 Share Posted June 26, 2005 I keep getting kicked by PunkBuster for "Blocked O/S Privileges"? Please temporarily disable other security type programs you have running such as anti-virus, process guard, SDProtector, etc. to find out which of them is blocking PB's access to resources on your computer. You either need to run PB without the blocking program(s) or play on non-PB servers. Also make sure you run the game under an Administrator or equivalent account under Windows. If you do have access an admin account, you can right click on the application you want to run and select "Run As". This will allow you to give admin access to that program and should allow you to play with a limited user. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I keep getting kicked by PunkBuster for "Insufficient O/S Privileges"? Download and run this file from any location, it will check for adware that stops you from being able to play on PB servers. The VX2 adware edits your user rights when it infects your computer, and many programs do not repair this when they remove it. http://www.greyknight17.com/spy/VX2Finder(126).exe Click the "Find VX2.betterinternet info" button to make sure that you don't have this adware. If there are no files listed, go on to the last step. If you find the adware files, (it is usually 3 random named dll files) Select all the files found. Press 'Delete These Files'. The program will delete all files but one that will be deleted on reboot. Allow program to reboot. Once Restarted: Press 'Guardian.reg'. Press 'User Agent'. Press 'Restore Policy'. Clicking on "find vx2.BetterInternet info" again should show all fields blank. If you have no adware files, just click on the "Restore Policy" Button Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PBStaff_Hendrik Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 You may want to give our new tool a try: http://websec.evenbalance.com/downloads/windows/pbsetup.exe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
=]GAF[=Highlanda Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 Thanks Hendrik Guys - one of my senior members all of sudden started to get a similar kick after 5 mins of play. He downloaded and used pbweb.exe 3 times and still no joy. One of the other chaps sent him his complete PB folder and all worked fine for him. So give that a try chaps if the link from Hendrik does not work :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
