Well my account got Jacked once as well, but Valve took care of it rather quickly and I got my account back with all my games

.

As long as the person who steals your account doesn't hack and get you banned you will be ok, but if he gets banned and you get your account back banned than you are shit out of luck my friend.

Alright good luck with that. I know the people on the other side of the ring who actually take the accounts... clever guys, make a good profit selling them. Usually they pull out ahead (by a few hundred dollars a week! :eek:

)

being illegal makes money, i use to pirate...i know.

Easy Rhino · Jan 5, 2009

but how does someone steal a steam account? what should i look for? it seems like you would have to be a moron to have your account stolen.

ShadowFold · Jan 5, 2009

idk my password doesn't work. My recovery question is reset and so is my email. My friends still have me on their lists and I haven't been on in awhile. Idk what the hell they were thinking.

Braveheart · Jan 5, 2009

theres many ways to hack an account, i found 3 different ways to steal CD key codes for adobe products...hacking is a big world.

What do you mean good luck with that? I got my account back a long time ago lol.

Easy Rhino · Jan 5, 2009

the only way someone could hack your steam account if you are careful is if they guess your lame password or something.

Wozzer · Jan 5, 2009

Ordered last Thursday, should be here today....

With my new set of Logitech X-540's !!

:Cheers:

Got tired of the weird freezing, turned off threaded optimization in my driver, game runs perfect! Why would they make a game in this day and age that only runs proper on a single core? Oh well... hope there's a patch for this soon.
Edit: nope, still does it, wins the most frustrating game of the year award for me! I'll have to try that console setting if I can find the thread...
Ok, found it, mat_queue_mode 0, jeez, finally runs smooth, why so much work to make a game run?

which freezing problem? mine freezes every 120 seconds or so for approx .25 seconds. it is highly annoying.

Wozzer · Jan 5, 2009

Was hoping it would arrive today. No luck - I've got tommorow off, Hoping it'll be here by then.

airways92 · Jan 5, 2009

mine freezes sometimes too.. people say is because of the lag but when i got 3 bars of signal, still freezes. I have to run it in window mode, just in case it crashes.. pure BS

AphexDreamer · Jan 5, 2009

Dang I guess I'm luck with the freezing issue than.

Tyr.1358 · Jan 5, 2009

I would love to play my copy of Left 4 Dead, but steam won't install it

Try entering this into the console or rolling back to earlier drivers. There is a problem with threaded optimization and nvidia's latest drivers that causes stuttering/freezing/crashing in Left 4 Dead.
