It is almost unbelievable how much BS Steam can pull. Now I can't update, and when I do, it crashes my computer for no reasons. Then, Steam freeze, I have to stop it manually using the task menu.

Unbelievable. These guys are going backward.

Like I said, bad karma. You guys should do some good deeds and redeem yourselves.

Its like rolling the dice with every update. You never know if your going to be a loser or a winner. The good news is after you roll enough times, everyone is a winner....not to fun though...

Exactly normally the updates come in fine. But twice after or during update something goes wrong resulting in having to re-install steam twice.

Yeah I know what you mean...It has not happened to me yet but it was hard last night. I had to beat on it for a while and it finally choked it down.

Yeah, I know what you mean, I used that small 500k installer, and had no problems with it, and was actually downloading content faster than some people on broadband, and have yet to have any problems that are definitely related to steam.
