Iv read about this problem on google and it said to stop running any 3rd party monitoring devices in game etc etc. I have never used any fps/monitoring programs and the problem is persisting. Problem started 3 days ago after restarting steam.
 
1.7.568 is what i'm currently running. it seems to be the latest for that game
 
Still getting the error even after reinstalling. Even faster this time around too...
 
Go to your Control panel, and Add and Remove Programs (Programs and Features if Win 6 or 7).

Remove Microsoft User-Mode Driver Framework Feature Pack 1.0 if it's installed. (I bet it is)

I would also suggest removing any .NET Framework 1.1 packages that may be installed.

Also note: ANY GUI overlays including, but not limited to, XFire can cause a kick as well. You must disable in-game overlay while in COD4 until PB gets off their lazy ass to fix the issues.

I hope this helps you! If it does not, please let me know and I will be more than happy to look deeper into your issue!

PROBLEM SOLVED: anyone who has this problem. A recent update to steam causes the "steam chat in game" to be detected as an external program running an illegal driver by punkbuster. To fix the problem go to File--> Settings-->Ingame--> uncheck the "Ingame chat" option. Restart steam and the problem will be fixed. Happy fragging.
