Archie, Type HLDSUPDATETOOL.EXE with no commands after it. The program line commands and switches will become available to you. The -verify_all option is /supposed/ to look at each and every file in your css and hl2 content directories and ensure that they 1) exist and 2) match the latest versions. I realize that this process is a catch 22 for VALVe as they were overwriting map lists and map cycles with the updates originally; that process stopped and when it stopped, I believe other checks stopped as well hence the requirement for me to completly remove all files (as I did not, and do not have a list of what files are not validated, I cannot tell you what one or two to remove from your system to get bots functioning again).
You can type in the command line with the verify all as: hldsupdatetool -command update -game "Counter-Strike Source" -verify_all -dir c:\yourbigdir The above command line assumes you are running CS Source; you would modify the text after -game to whatever game you are running. As I stated before, this process did *NOT* work for me. My only solution was to complete remove all VALVe content and reinstall from scratch. I wish you the best of luck on your endeavors.
