I just installed Wolfenstein on my new computer and now when I try to connect to ECGN, it says I am banned. What is up with that?

It says I was permanently banned by punkbuster due to prior kick/ban. I could connect to ECGN a few hours ago on my old computer, why not now?

Go into the main folder and open the file named "rtcwkey". Change the key that is in there for the one that is on your cd box then save the changes and you should be good to go. It's a pretty common problem.

oooooohhh I was gonna say do you have punkbuster enabled? lol cause I just went through this when I was getting ET for my friend. we tried to connect to a server and it said we were banned, after a couple minutes of frustration, we realized we needed to enable punkbuster.
