Posted by N3M- at 00:29 3/10/2003.

The busy bees over at Valve have released an update for the Steam program itself, here's the list of fixes:

• fixed bug where favourite servers would not get saved to disk if filtered out
• increased max servers listed from 10,000 to 20,000
• fixed 'add friends' and 'game info' dialogs showing up over gameplay in game
• fixed problem with not always being able to re-add friends after removing them
• fixed case where authorisation request dialog could appear multiple times from the same user
• fixed chat messages & authorisation requests stealing focus and not starting minimized
• fixed auto-away not working
• removed 'about' dialog
• fixed add-on (checkers, etc) invites when in game appearing over the top of the game, instead of just in the gameUI area
• removed unnecessary bind() calls for client UDP sockets
• chat dialogs now add a message into the text whenever the other user changes status
• fixed spurious character in Game Info dialog
• change 'time' info in game info player list to be in hours:minutes:seconds instead of just seconds
• changed game info player list to default to sorting by score, then time

Along with this news it has also came to surface of a bug which has presented itself with the new update. This bug re-named menus weird names such as (#SteamRoo.).

Below is the fix for this problem:

1. Close STEAM
2. goto program files/ steam and delete the file called clientregistry.blob
3. restart steam
