Default no or bad challenge for address

"no or bad challenge for address" this error report gives me no peace for second day already and I still can't find a working way to bypass this problem on Call of Duty: World at war v1.3. Googled the whole internet and almost everywhere I found these same poor advices like: check your firewall, update punkbuster, use /reconnect in console.

No go for mentioned above.

This happens when I try to use cracked servers to join. Any other solutions would be appreciated. PM pls.

Anything might be an issue even the fault of punkbuster as people around the web speculates. However I managed to connect to some of the cracked servers but majority of those still behind "no or bad challenge address" error.

Those troubles are the reasons why I buy a game if I want to play it online. If the games multiplayer is really good, it'll still be played when it's already lower in price. Then I buy. You won't see me shelling out 50€'s for a new game unless I know it's REALLY exceptional and I want to play it as soon as possible.
