Run this:

I temporary disable my anti-virus, and run the link you send me.
I restart my computer and log on 25 assist.
After 1 minute maybe, I was kicked for same reason as before..

This worked for two of my friends yesterday, anyone issuing pb restriction kicks nowadays with win10 should give this a try. Gj Possessed

Well, I upgraded from Win 7 to Win 10 and I get kicked often due to PB service failure.
