"aimbot#51172"

I moved my game to my ssd and as soon as I started playing I got instantly banned for "aimbot#51172" I dont know if this is a bug with pb, or a manual ban from you guys.
Approx 1 hour after my ban, a good friend of mine also got banned on your server with the same ban message. We're both streaming our gameplay most of the time, and none of us has cheated of course.
I thought my ban had something to do with me moving my game to my ssd and some none whitelisted program on my ssd got me banned. (Since pb dont whitelist programs anymore). And I do have a program called "Cisco Packet Tracer" on my ssd, which led me to believe that it was that program that got me banned. So I quickly deleted it and bought a new copy of the game since its dirt cheap. And boom, everything was fine again.
What now made me question that it was in fact my program "Cisco Packet Tracer" that got me banned, is the fact that my friend who does not have that program also got banned. I know he does not cheat. So i'd assume that what got him banned is also what got me banned. Since it was within such a short period of time of each other, and both had the exact same ban message and both came off the exact same server.
I'd love to hear your take on this, and/or if this is something you have experienced before. I have already appealed my ban but I dont assume i'll get an answer any time soon, as evenbalance are notoriously bad at replying to their ban appeals.
I already posted this once in the bc2 forum. I deleted my old post to move it here, as it seemed more fitting.
