Since the Forums are not moderated by Valve Employess on a full-time basis, it is impossible for the moderators to help with these requests. We will be moving account questions out of the forums. I hope everyone understands that the reason for this is to help resolve account issues as quickly as possible.

The response time varies according to the number of open support tickets submitted before yours and the quality of information in your ticket.

If you have more to add, add to the open ticket rather than submitting a new one as that only slows the process but it does NOT put you back to the end on the line as some people suggest.

Sometimes, support is not the bloated, crawling monster some say.
(Because people who get their tickets swiftly dealt with, don't come as much to tell it on the forums as those who have to wait)

2nd time?

Don't you think its time to reassess how you are handling your steam account security, and what sites you are visiting?

Nobody just puts a keylogger on your computer.

I've had steam for over 6 years, and have accumulated over 1,000 games, and have never had the problem some people have with account security. Why? I have common sense. Only bring up the fact that I have that many games because it would seem like that would make me a prime target for someone to try and steal my account. But nope. Has not happened.

Just sayin man, be careful on what you download.

Fool you once, shame on them. But fool you twice?

lol you sure have an old pc just change it.

Go buy another and stop going on xxx websites if you wanna have a better anti-virus go take Antivir or Nod32 which are Better than Avast crap.
