HEZEKIAH Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 I think it does involve the firewall from what it sounds. Make sure steam is allowed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soliloquist Posted August 9, 2010 Author Share Posted August 9, 2010 Shit you might have a virus actually. Try running a virusscan. see that sounds realistic, but i haven't downloaded anything lately. and avg runs automatic scans... i'm running a full scan right now just in case, but i'm fairly sure its not a virus.
