Post i had to reinstall all my games.
Hey guys i just had to reinstall all my games. Last night i tried to jump on the Main server but i got this message that a trojan horse was found so i jumped off steam and deleted steam and now i am in the process of reinstalling my games. Have any of you guys/gals had any problems when you jump on steam or a server and you get a virus/worm/trojan horse pop up screen?

You still had the trojan horse even though you reinstalled? Hmm maybe i'll wait awhile until steam fixes the problem.

My brother said that Norton was having problems and the trojan horse is a false positive he suggested i wait until norton fixes the problem what i've seen on the steam forums is people turn off norton and they're able to play. I think that is very brave or very stupid to turn off norton.

Oh my god.

I'm seriously just so damn close to saying F*CK PCs and getting a shitty stinky-ass mac. That want I don't have to worry about wondering what the hell's going wrong when it breaks. I'll just know it's a mac and it's a piece of shit.

F*CKING tired of PCs and this shit. What's broken? Is it <insert>? Is it the piece of shit Windows? F*CK I DON'T KNOW. GOD DAMNIT!
