PunkBuster ban?

[Dienger]

I got permanatley banned from a server and when they were saying they were gonna ban me they said something about a PunkBuster ban and now whenever I go into a server with PunkBuster my game closes so I was wondering if anyone has heard of this before or if anyone knows how to fix it. Thank You.

statement: from what i've read on Pc Gamerz magazine, i believe they ban you hardwares serial codes or something around those lines. As T0m said there are threads with more about it and how to get around it. if you dont. well have fun buyin new hardware lol.
