    seeing this thread prompted me to check my steam thingy, seems to be at 32%, no idea what its updating tho... really is a good idea just poorly executed *sigh*.

    good luck with the updating

    357 I think.

    It's the DoD one, but it's all I installed last time and Counter-Strike was on it??

    I havent installed anything else other than this STEAM and the updates it downloads.

    Wheres this cache folder?

    This has happened to me on a few occasions it would stop at 29%, I just got fed up and canceled it. Then re-booted, tried to update again it hung at 32% I left it for about 5 mins then it updated successfully.

    Yup - exact same problem with me ...

    Steam isn't ready for Final release and IMO it should never have been released!

    well, come back from the pub and steam has finished faffing about such a wonderful program... i dont see why they couldn't have released 1.6 as a binary download patch thing, and then introduced steam a couple of months later once it had been polished (ie worked?!)...

    ah well
