Trying to play the game since updating punkbuster yesterday - Tip: never do this - since then the game runs all laggy and then you get kicked:
Game disconnected: you were kicked by PunkBuster. Stated reason: PunkBuster kicked player 'PrivParts' (for 2 minutes) ... Losing Key Packets 9014
I have no antivirus etc running?

Have you fully uninstalled BF3, Punk buster cleared yer reg and reinstalled? That should sort it.

Got this reply from evenbalance:
Note #2: Please go to your PB folder and create a plain text file "pbcl.cfg" in it (use a text editor like "Notepad", make sure it has no additional '.txt' extension). Put the text "pb_logtofile 1" as a single line to it. Then save the file and join a PB enabled server. After getting kicked, you should have a file "pbcl.log" in the PB folder. Open the pbcl.log, copy and paste the contents of the log into a new note, here on the trouble ticket.
WTF? - All that hastle for that?!

Seems that its quite a well know thing - found this here: battlelog.battlefield.com/bf3/news/... If you are seeing a kick or disconnect after about 5 minutes of play, it is likely to be caused by PunkBuster not being updated or timing out. To resolve this try these basic steps: Press CTRL+ALT+DEL and select Task Manager Go to the PROCESSES tab Find PnkBstrA.exe and PnkBstrB.exe and END PROCESS on both of them Download PBSVC.exe from www.evenbalance.com/downloads/pbsvc/pbsvc.exe [evenbalance.com] and run it as Administrator. It will check and update Punkbuster. Download PBSetup from www.evenbalance.com/index.php?page=pbsetup.php [evenbalance.com] and run it as Administrator (Add all the games you have installed to the list) and run the process. Log back in to Battlelog and connect to a server of your choice.
This should resolve the kicking after 5 minutes that some of you are seeing.
