Well, I got this error while playing Americas Army.. which also uses PunkBuster.
First step would be to exit the game, check processes and see if it is running... as this process runs even when you exit the game until you manually stop it.. if this process is missing then start it up yourself by finding the punkbuster folder in your COD4 directory and manually start it. Then try to play again. If this does not work, then run a punkbuster update (should be in the same file) and try to play.

If none of the above works, let me know... I've never played CoD4 so not sure how the directory looks, but if its punkbuster it should be the same or similiar.

Hope this helps,
WaXeD.
