Steam Issues

Has anyone had this error recently when trying to connect to servers?

lol. Who woulda thought? The error basically means that your login has expired... I think.

At first it was kinda a pain to log off and log back in. However, at some point they added the ability to throw in your username and password right at the error. Kinda surprised it didn't do that with Paft.

Yes I've re-opening steam a few times.
I've tested on a few servers and one mainly just because. I'd get it a few times then it would stop, Then when i try to enter the server again I'd get this message.
I'm sure it's temporary.

Not just exiting steam and starting again. Make sure you actually log out of steam and log back in. If that still doesn't help shut down steam and delete the clientregistry.blob file in your steam/steamapps folder and start steam again.

I randomly get that sometimes, no matter how long ago I've logged in. Usually it goes away by reconnecting to the server though.

Yes i mean logging in and out.
Ah yes forgot about deleting clientregistry.blob.
I normally delete that to see if it would help when i get poor download speed in steam.

No this isn't normal. Almost everyone is getting this error now and there isn't anything that will fix it (yet). Rumor has it steam got hacked. I think they just took on too much bandwidth with all the soccer moms playing Bejeweled 2.
