Are you sure you aren't just spamming again?

Punkbuster is an increasingly used program that scours your CPU and checks the game directory of the game that it comes with to scan for potential cheats. If you are found cheating it will either kick or ban you from the server you joined and possibly add you to a list of known hackers/cheaters.

Don't try and get around it.

Well when PB is not hacked itself, it works quite fine.


Now you have a reason to stay online.

PB is the greatest thing for online gaming. COD was filled with cheaters and hackers and when PB came out I suddenly got alot better, hmmm...

Americas Army relys heavily on Punkbuster for Anti cheat and it works great. It is true some hacks make it by the sytem, but PB autoupdates itself to work against the newer hacks.

Some games like RTCW, Quake 3 and Counter Strike have outdated and unfrequently updated Punkbuster clients built into there games, so PB dosn't work to well with those games.

But overall its a great tool for anti cheat and hacks in online PC gaming.
