Steam Question.

[-Source]

My steam client wont display web pages. To fix this i must uninstall and reinstall steam. My question however is; if i uninstall steam, then reinstall it, will all my games still be there and usable?'

Edit: PROBLEM SOLVED

as long as the steam uninstaller doesn't delete your steamapps folder yes. just move that to another location before uninstalling to be sure.

Yeah, if you don't move your games out then the uninstaller will delete them. Happened to me when I was trying to fix a bug causing my client to crash when I opened my friends list because I was in too many groups.

Thanks for confirming that Lucario.

It shouldn't be steam causing the error though, it's probably your internet explorer.

Crap, My steam wouldent do this, and it was 'cause of a virus. All I had to do was go into internet explorer (never use it) and go to tool and options and then at had something to do with proxys. Not sure if that will help.

I don't use internet explorer, but if you guys have any ideas to help me fix it, that would be cool.

I had this problem a few days ago where nothing was able to connect to the internet except my anti-virus and Firefox. I ran HijackThis and found a few things that were odd, removed them and everything worked.
:iiam:

well yes, but i personally don't use the actual program...

Edit:

Ah, well i got it. On IE the "work offline" button was checked, when it shouldn't have been. Steam works now.

I had the same problem, Opera, IE, or Google Chrome would not work. Firefox worked fine. It was just an option in LAN options or something about LAN I think.

This happened in Steam too, so I didn't buy any gaems for a while, even though I could have downloaded from steampowered.com
