Steam issues

[B1nary]

Anyone else having issues with steam since the last update 6th may 13?

Mine kept trying to install a 1,185Kb update then wants to restart, I tried a repair install did not work, then I did a clean install and steam couldn't even start up because it had to update, i then used a previous version from Thursday it updated to the new version restarted and now wants to download a 1.3mb file the whole time.

I though maybe it was avast at one stage but it looks like steam screwed up something somewhere.

You're lucky, I regularly have to download a file in excess of 60mb for some reason.

Same. Although I think its EVERY time I start steam I have to wait for a update.

Every two days I get a "your steam needs to restart" for a update. It's the same update since June 6. Seems to be a fix for the bug that we are currently experiencing.

Okay that's the one im getting its like a 1.3mb update right? my friends isn't doing that for some reason. What anti virus are you guys using?

call me paranoid but this issue seems to coincide with me installing avast, could just be a coincidence though

You're lucky yours is every 2 days, I'm getting that several times in 1 day :/

Had Avast install for years now, and never had a problem with it.

Haven't had many problems with Steam other than it wanting to update nearly every day.

Could be that you guys are registered for the Client Beta.

Steam->Settings->Account->Beta Participation
Opt out of all betas and see if that helps.

Otherwise there have been issues with Steam updates and anti-virus software. But that was back in March.
