Maybe because people want to play on official servers? The search works
now and will actually fall back to non-official servers thanks to a
longer search timeout.
Though it may not apply to you, we had good success with the 64-bit hacked
Apache on our Server 2008 x64 box. It made quite a difference. I am not
claiming that the 64-bit was better but that the hacked version sure did
run happier on the box than the stock Apache.
Yes, we check the useragent

Sounds like we got a L4D update. It's not just a client update. I just

Same here, The only traffic we're getting is from steam group/search key

I did run the updates tonight and my servers are more and more populated
since the last two hours.
I compared as good as possible the configs between the whitelisted servers
and mine with the help
of HLSW. The only two differences are that the the whitlisted ones have:
- sv_voiceenable 1

Sorry, CORRECTION from my last post:

Hey Guys I am running L4D server and I notice in HLSW that some of the
servers say
Windows, Dedicated, Protocol 7
and the others say
Windows, Dedicated, Protocol 242
Should all the servers be the same? Is it caused Ip range? I got
servers on 72.x.x.x and servers on the 205.x.x.x
Thanks
If it's not fixed today, my server will be shut down.

Those servers that report protocol 242 need to be updated. There was a
non-required update released on March 13th that corrected it. The required
update on March 12th seemed to cause the protocol to be reported as 242 in
HLSW.
Also, since there was yet another update release last night, you may
Delisting won't affect most redirect servers... From my experience people
