[cod] PB server not able to update clients

Version 1.625 of the PB Server for COD4 has been released to our PB Master
Servers for auto-update and to our website download page. This update
reverts to PB Client version 2.009 due to recent PB Client builds not
auto-updating smoothly. A new PB Client build will be released soon to
correct this issue. Kicking has been temporarily disabled at our masters so
as not to negatively affect players who do not have PB Client version 2.009.
