Trouble connecting

[TurboX]

I noticed tonight that I only see DSA servers on the internet.

So I set out to connect to NJ COD via command line with:
64.94.100.200:28960

Which gets me the "server uses a different protocol version:6
You Have to Install the Update to Call of Duty 4 v1.7

Now I've run this game for years and never had any issues. Any ideas??

I reinstalled, and will do so once more after I wipe out the registry entires but after that, I'm out of ideas. Can't manually update this to 1.7 and noticed my version looks to be 1.6 now.

So it's not just me - but MANY MANY steam users. Steam downgraded digital back to 1.6 (Doh!) Anyway, looks like I found a solution. Unfortunately not going to advertise it here but it's an easy google search - hint: right click COD4 in steam then go to community then there's loads of info in there that take you somewhere else eventually.

For steam owners of cod4 that got screwed today by steam's mystery downgrade, simply extract and copy the attached v1.7 file into your COD4 game directory.

I scanned the file, it's safe and I just got done playing on our server so there you go.

We don't need any DCMAs -G1

Apparently there was some exploit that allowed people to take over other player’s PCs, so they reverted to a patch where this wasn’t possible? Hopefully this doesn’t affect the population of the game too much.

I thought Turbo was just messing with me.
