*Your welcome! Do you mean hacking while playing in your server? If so go
to
http://www.evenbalance.com/
and make sure your PunkBuster is fully updated
for 1942. Then of course make sure you are running PB with your server.
That's about the only thing you can do. Next I would do a search for all
of
the server commands so you can kick and block/ban the hacking *****es. It
has always amazed me on how people get an ego boost from owning people on
a
video game (by hacking). Their lack of skill is still painfully in the
back
of their pitiful heads.
Hope this helps!
I won't be at my PC for a few weeks......vacation time!
Good luck again.
