A Steam update has just been released. It is a fixed version of last week's update, so the list of what's included is the same:
Added support for "trickle update", which will allow updates to games to be delivered over time before they are activated.
Optimizations in Steam targeted at reducing CPU and memory load on some systems.
Progress dialog always shows now during startup.
Fixed handling of cache fingerprint mismatch on reconnect
Fixed case which would cause the preloader ignoring errors to send extra messages to the Steam servers.
Fixed bug in Steam that would cause cache to be validated too often when Steam started. This would cause hard drive thrashing.
Fixed a potential lockup case and access violation case in Steam.
We've also added support for ATI bundle product keys. So it is now possible for purchasers of new ATI video cards to use their product keys for subscriptions to the Valve Premier Pack. (Half-Life 2 will be added to the subscription when it comes out.)

I'd guess at the update being about 3-4MB in size.  Download NOW!

I still have the same problems, when is there going to be patch to solve mine. I asked Steam allready several times, still no respond. :unsure:  :( I still can't type when I'm dead. Only the first few rounds and then nothing. Even spec_menu 0 and so doesn't work.

Steam didn't answere you personally? How odd!
I think the only answer you'll get is the one already given. Are you typing spec_menu 0 in the console when you are back in the game, i.e. 'alive'? So that the NEXT time you die you should be able to type again. The other thing that has occured to me is , if you are crouched or hit the crouch button as you die it will have the same effect.

Are you starting CS with "-console" as part of your command line? If not it might be worth a try?
