i use to have this problem b4. Its actually the masterserver failed to release ur key on their side... well thats what they said. anyhow, keeping that in mind. i did saw some master server issues when creating a new dedicated Internet server and thats what i did (this will bring you out a console). Created the server, joined and quit afterwards then it worked. It worked for me a couple of times and i wish it will on ur side.

If my method dont work, there was also a tip that you should delete one of the server info file in ur windowsserver something... but it didnt work for me but worked for others. Forgot the link tho but Google the topic and it will get you somewhere.

oh i also forgot to mention. restarting your router has also worked for me.

So 3 solutions of the moment whereby 2 worked for me:
1. start a dedicated online server, join and quit
2. reboot your router/modem or whatever
3. google and find the nested file in your windows that held the server info

THIS INFO IS NOT MINE I HAVE TAKEN FROM A DIFFERENT WEBSITE...............but hope it helps you...
