That sounds like it won't let you play because VAC found you cheating... if it's that, say goodbye to TF2.

The projects never end in my line of work.

If you believe it's an error, you'll need to contact Valve Support and try to explain. VAC is Valve Anti-Cheat, like Punkbuster for their games.

 

That won't work. It's on their VAC page: we don't lift VAC bans for any reason.

Valve is not known for their reasonable attitude towards VAC bans, but given the number of false-positives known to trigger the system it would be stupid not to at least ask about the ban. If nothing else, it's yet another concern voiced about their policy.
