yeah, it's an older version. here's the link for an app from our own dr watson that allows you to switch between protocols with ease

SLAIN, you should check this thread:
http://www.quake3world.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=13296
A protocol is the "language" in which the server communicates with the client. If the server uses a differend protocol as your computer (the client) then you won't be able to connect to that server, since the server and client don't understand each other. You will be dumped back to the menu with a message "server uses protocol xx" where xx is the protocol number.
Quake 3 uses different network protocols depending on the point release used.
Point Release

43
1.17
45
1.2x

1.32
