<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Happens when their client files are not the same
version as the server. PB cannot communicate with the client so it kicks them
after a while. I have a setting on my quake 3 server that places the client in
spec mode and attempts a client update. Almost as if saying "Apples for Apples
or you cannot play". </FONT></DIV>
