Xbox Live's Stephen Toulouse (Stepto on Twitter) has put gamers on notice that performing the so-called Javelin glitch in Modern Warfare 2 that causes you and your foes to die as one will lead to Xbox Live suspensions of 24 hours to two weeks.

The game will be patched soon, but until then, as Stepto says, "Play fair everyone."

I am so glad this is geting banned. this is one of the worst glitches cod has seen. i have to admit i have tried it once and suprisingly it is amazingly fun, but once is enough. i file a complaint against anyone who is using this more than one match since most people use this all the time.
