This is probably due to the recent content server issues. The steam binary is very slow for me recently too. Try creating a file named "Steam.cfg" (caps count!) in the same folder as the steam binary with the following: PreferredContentServerIDs = "141 78 79" Where 141,78,79 are content servers to attempt to use. http://store.steampowered.com/stats/content/ lists servers. - Neph _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds
