if it says read only, go in to your baseq3 folder and check that your config.cfg file is not locked, open it using textedit, and change the cl-punkbuster setting to 1, if you need to, copy T's post "cl_punkbuster 1" in to your cfg file, then re-save making sure to keep the cfg, not a txt thingy on the end of the name.

Well I'm on a Mac OS X version and there is no config.file (thats a wondows thing)
I have attempted to mod the pak files were punkbuster is loaded into but the console still shows it trying to load punkbuster.
It show as if it is running in the multiplayer menu, but shows disabled. When clicked the enable menu with yes/no shows but enabling does not tak effect when yes is choosen.

There is a q3config.cfg file for OS X as well as for Windows. Go to your ~/Library/Application Support/Quake3/baseq3/ folder and you'll see the config file there.
If you modify the punkbuster files you'll get kicked from every punkbuster enabled server out there.
If you cannot find it, do a search on your system for "q3config.cfg" and you'll see the config file show up. There might be multiple config files, so edit the one in the directiory I mentioned above.
