punkbuster keeps kicking me from battlefield bad company 2

[Crection1]

I just bought Battlefield Bad Company 2 on steam from the steam summer sale but when I try to play multiplayer the game keep kicking me saying some * about this punkbuster and it's really pissing me off. I can play single player fine but I got bored of it. Please someone help, the full error message is

"You have been kicked from the game. The reason is: Punkbuster kicked player 'John A McMillan' (For 0 minutes) ... RESTRICTION: Service Communication Failure: PnkBstrA.exe"

So, your issue is solved or you still experience it?

When I join a multiplayer game I am able to play it for a few minutes, sometimes seconds, and I will get kicked and it says:
"You have been kicked from the game. The reason is:
PunkBuster kicked player '(my in-game nickname)' for (0 minutes)...RESTRICTION Service Communication Failure: PnkBstrA.exe"
Does anyone have a fix for this? Thanks for any help!

I have downloaded the new one from 'Evenbalance' but it still kicks me out of game.....
