    Anyone else having problems with Steam?

    Has the Steam store been down for anyone else? I've tried to load it several times over the weekend (the Magicka QL got me all antsy) and I keep getting a "Failed to Load Web page (unknown error) -118."  
     
    Am I alone in this? If so, how can I fix it?

    Must be you, since Steam works fine for me.

    Usually fixes itself for me by just clicking the "home" icon at the top of the Steam browser navigation bar, or by going to the store in a proper web browser.

    I can't even open the client on my laptop.
     
    I'm sure restarting it will fix that problem though.

    yes, i have a problem with steam but not your problem. all of the games that i play they get stuck at syncing.  counter strike source has been "syncing" for like 3 days now. the game still works, which is a good thing.

    I've had a similar problem, but only with one game.  I bought Jade Empire a LONG time ago and didn't get to finish it.  Downloaded it recently cuz I've been feeling to play it, but it just won't startup.  And when I try to press play, it says that the game is already running... weird.  Only game that does that.
