Hi,
Been in offline mode for a few years, now I come to go online steam wont connect.
googled this, tried ALL the suggestions, all except for disabling windows firewall, no way will I compromise my win7 pc for damn steam.
faced with a total reinstall, it warns it will nuke all games from steam.
I have CoD, and assetto corsa, all tweaked and modded over the years.
I have backed up PC just ready for the update if Bltz v5, cannot access emails until update now done.
and I get this steam fiasco.
there is one article on fiddling with ports on your router, ye gods..

come on , when someone installs steam you dont have to try and get hold of virgin media for an hour, then say you need them to fiddle with all the ports, steam just goes on, and works, the minnions at Virgin would most likely mess up an otherwise perfect setup,.
this is just nuts, we shouldnt have to go that deep, steam will have us hacking the registry next !
I fear its to be a total reinstall.
what should I backup and then copy paste back in so as not to lose anything as I cant redo years of work all over again.
will steam only attack the Blitz folders or all my earlier mod folders with suffix names such as mod3 ?
Bloody steam :-(
I have seen others complain of it, now I know why., that it attacks what was on your pc.
