The PB Server software routinely checks with the master PB Servers and downloads new updates over the Internet when they become available and then distributes the new versions to connected PB Clients when players running an old version connect to the server. Both components are designed to automatically keep themselves up to date with the latest versions of PunkBuster. There are two major components to the PunkBuster system: the PunkBuster Server (runs on game servers) and the PunkBuster Client (runs on players' playing machines while they play the game). For cases where the auto-update fails, we have created a utility called PBSetup. PunkBuster is designed to keep itself up to date using our proprietary auto-update system.
