steam:// is already registered by Steam itself, it would be a really, really bad idea for another program to re-register it.
Like I said earlier: steam: -applaunch 10 +connect 81.169.187.229:27015 It may not look like a valid URL, but it is. You can type that into IE, or Firefox, or any browser on Windows and it'll start Steam, start the game you specify with the applaunch number (in this case 10 for CS) and then pass it the parameter +connect 81.169.187.229:27015 which causes it to connect to the server. No third-party apps required. You can obviously change the applaunch number for any of the Steam games. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Brian A.
