ok to get some idea of why t'internet is broked, we need some info...

1. What make is your wireless router?
2. on your computer, if you click start>run>type 'cmd' and press ok, then in the black screen type 'ipconfig' what is your IP address listed as?
3. Are you using any 3rd party programs to handle wirless e.g. netgear wireless utility or is it done through windows?

From this we can tell whether the computer is actually connecting to the wireless router....

4. click start>control panel>network connections>look for network connections* and open it (if you can't see it, select 'switch to classic view' on the left first. Next right-click on your wireless network adapter and select properties, then the wireless networks tab. Is your connection in the preferred connections list? if so click on it and select properties... what is the network authentication and data encryption set to?

5. Because that was a nerdy post, I'll finish on a bad joke.. how do you get pikachu on a bus?.......................................................... you poke-him-on (apologies)

ta,

Monkey

# Navigate to your Steam installation directory (by default, C:\Program Files\Steam or C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam)

* If you wish to keep your saved games and downloaded multiplayer content for a future installation of Steam, move your \steamapps\ folder to your desktop

# Delete the contents of the Steam installation directory
# Go to Start, select Run, and enter regedit
# In the left-hand column of your registry editor, navigate to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Valve\
# Right-click on the Steam subdirectory and select Delete
# In the left-hand column of your registry editor, navigate to: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Valve\Steam
# Right-click on the Steam subdirectory and select Delete


That should get rid of steam... you should then be able to run the new installer
