I get that sometimes Swiss. Cancel the attempt and retry does it for me.

It's the box with the moving bar you get after you've clicked to join a server.

On some servers this occurs frequently with me. This is because as they have outlined above it may be a xp issue but i think you should check your taskbar for opened programs. Sometimes zonealarm blocks me from loading sites and games, so carefully go through which programs are running and have any been recently installed to start this problem! Hope this helps

I had a call from Swiss tonight and this problem is still bugging him.  Can someone shed some light on this and help him get a resolution?

AFAIAA he has tried a total reinstal of Steam (folders deleted et al).  He can browse the internet no problem, but when the precaching of resources kicks off it just hangs and never finishes.  Task Manager says 'Steam CZ Not Responding'.  The computer also hangs.

Anyone any clues for Swiss here?  he's about to throw the PC out of the window.......

Firewall problem?

Did some googling and most of the freeze ups during precache  are due to steam downloading updates.I know it aint this but its all I could find atm,sorry. :(
