Are you properly installed/patched with Arma 2? Do you also have Operation Arrowhead (or do you have Combined Operations) ? Combined Operations (or Operation Arrowhead) are also required to join VG Arma Servers.

From the Arma 2 MultiPlayer Menu, you can see a colored indicator that will let you know which servers you can join based on your current version and addon set.
Green is Good to Go, Yellow is Unknown (just try, and if it kicks you, a message will tell you what you are missing), and Red is of course Cannot Join/Version Mis-Match. Check how ours is displayed to you. You will need the Addon Map CLAfghan for the CLAfghan Server Mission, it is far from stock - BlastCoreVisuals, JSRS Sound Mod, and CBA are merely optional.
Insurgency Server requires no addons, and allows none.

Additionaly, when you click one time on a server, the information at the bottom will tell you details: Current Patch Version running on Server; Online Player Names; Current Addons Active on Server; etc.
If you are able to screenshot, it may help me help you better, but try some of the things listed above - let me know how it works.

Current Install Order for Arma 2:
1. Install Arma 2

2. Install Arma 2 Operation Arrowhead

3. Run Arma 2 at least once; exit back to desktop.

4. Run Arma 2 Operation Arrowhead at least once; exit back to desktop.

5. If you have BAF DLC Addon Pack, install it.

6. Run BAF at least once; exit to desktop.

7. If you have PMC DLC Addon Pack, install it.

8. Run PMC at least once; exit to desktop.

9. Install the 1.60 Patch (or run Steam update) now. Downloads for BI can be found here, or in our DL section: Arma Patches

9b. Run Arma 2/OA/CO at least once; exit to desktop.

9c. Install the 1.62 Patch (or run Steam update) now.

10. Spend a fair amount of time removing key bindings you will never use for the 20 redundant Arma buttons !lol

If you are still having problems try removing the PR mod (you can re-install later) to see if that helps.

Also make sure you are running Arma COMBINED OPERATIONS, not just Arma 2 or Arma 2 Operation Arrowhead. To do this in Steam, make sure you have launched regular Arma 2 and Arma 2 OA at least once, then go into your Steam Library, right-click on Arma 2 OA, and select Launch Combined Operations.
