PB B and K are only installed or updated from the game that is running PB. They have nothing to do with pbsetup.

I'm glad you got it fixed but it may help others out in the future if you state how you found/fixed the problem instead of saying you find no point in this thread anymore.
Yeah, that would help. What this problem actually is is a PnkBstrB.exe handshaking failure. I found this out in 2142 when I was consistently kicked for such problem. I then read one of the posts about how to fix that. All you have to do is go to Control Panel -> Administrative Options -> Services -> scroll down the list, and disable PnkBstrA.exe if it's running. PnkBstrB.exe is fine to keep running.

For some reason my computer would not properly shut down PnkBstrA.exe when it was supposed to. Sometimes it would, sometimes it wouldn't. It was awfully hit and miss.
