Description

Everything was fine until I downloaded 1.46, but then for some reasone i couldn't find any servers on multiplayer when battleye was enabled and on the launcher under battleye it said.

09-06-2015 16:06:20 - Starting BattlEye Service...
09-06-2015 16:06:20 - Updating BattlEye Service...
09-06-2015 16:06:20 - Launching the game...
09-06-2015 16:06:55 - BattlEye: Note that file blocks can be ignored if they don't cause problems with the game.
09-06-2015 16:06:55 - Blocked loading of file 'C:\Windows\SysWOW64\PCProtect.dll'

I tried to delete PCProtect.dll but I couldn't because it said that it was open and then I moved it to another folder but i didn't work no servers came up.

The only way for me to play Arma 3 Multiplayer right now is to play on servers that doesn't use battleye because I can only find servers when I disallow battleye in the launcher.

Additional Information

Okay, I think I fixed it so what i did was that i first downloaded Malwarebytes(link: https://www.malwarebytes.org/ ) and scaned my pc and it put the PCProtect.dll in quarantine but I'm not sure if that fixed it because i also did something else in my command promt before i launched my game which you can see here:

To fix this please reset your system’s Winsock connection settings by opening a Windows command prompt as administrator (go to Start -> All Programs -> Accessories, right-click on “Command Prompt” and choose “Run as administrator”) and entering “netsh winsock reset” (without the quotes). Reboot your computer and check if your problem is fixed now.

That was all I did and now I can see and join every server again, I hope that this fix work for you guys.

Getting similar message..
"9.6.2015 2:36:20 - Blocked loading of file 'C:\Windows\SysWOW64\user32.dll'"
Anyone know what this means?

I wonder if both of you got some malware or something. user32.dll shouldn't be blocked except if it's maybe infected and that PCProtect.dll could be some malware that came with some software that you've installed.
