We have released a fix for this in Beta form. Run Steam with "-beta hl1" on the command line to get this update (note that you CANNOT run both the SDK beta and this beta at the same time).
I would appreciate feedback from people verifying that this fixes the problem. If you do see this message after running the beta log out of Steam and back in again (via the File->Change user... option) to make sure you login credentials are updated. This update will be made public in a day or so if our internal testing and feedback from the beta goes well. - Alfred Aaron Schiff wrote: > -- > [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] > I've had the problem myself as well as someone else I know...I just > tested > now and got that error > > On 11/29/05, Alfred Reynolds <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> >> You get that error message for a couple of reasons.
