The DeusExDeco mismatch msg appearing when trying to connect to fully updated server is due to the fact that players are using the OEM version of Deus Ex (packaged with Creative Audigy Soundcard for some graphic board for example).
What to do? First off, (and you most likely have done this.) IF YOU HAVE installed the
regular 1.112FM update already (thinking thats the correct way to update) then you need to uninstall your game and install it again (I recommend delete the "DeusEx" sub-folder from your HD after the uninstallation is complete before installing the game again.
Then download this
PATCH (Pick closest mirror to you and download) and install the patch onto your game.
Everything should be then fine and dandy. (NOTE ^ Above patching instruction is for OEM Deus Ex game version only | Other version of DX does not pertain to this.)

Hope that helps.
I'm not quite sure what this is about, but if you can tell me what version your DX copy is originally (version number prior to updating), maybe we can troubleshoot this out for future reference.
