Maybe I should clarify. I open up my command prompt and input the following:
hldsupdatetool -command update -game "Counter-Strike Source" -Dir "D:\Program Files\SrcServer" -username server -password ***** Then it does the whole "checking bootstrapper version" and "verifying files" thing. Then when it gets to downloading cstrike\sound\radio\stormfront.wav it stops and says "Compression Failure, Winsock Error 0 'No Error'" and goes back to the command prompt. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Matt Sent: Sunday, March 06, 2005 10:11 PM To: hlds@list.valvesoftware.com Subject: RE: [hlds] Cant get Steam to complete update 1.

Does't hurt to run several online anti-virus and spyware scans and make sure you're clean there are trojans/spyware that can mess up your winsock. Programs like x-fire and google remote desktop hijack your internet as a LSP (layered service provider) that can also cause problems, you shouldn't be running those on a game server. You can check your winsock by running lspfix: http://www.cexx.org/lspfix.htm For XP you should see: mswsock.dll (Tcpip) winrnr.dll (NTDS) rsvpsp.dll (Protocol handler) if you see mslsp.dll then you have an infection. ----- Original Message ----- From: Matt To: hlds@list.valvesoftware.com Sent: Sunday, March 06, 2005 3:35 PM Subject: RE: [hlds] Cant get Steam to complete update I'm having the exact same problem on xp pro sp2.
