Could I have been IP banned?

I cant access my account, the website or the forums. The client does not connect at all, and the web page just times-out.

I have connected via my neighbours internet and everything is fine.

HALP!

please.

It shows up here, you normally get notified for breach of regulations though so check your mail or so if possible. Smile
(Could be a ISP specific issue such as with the DNS currently also.)

Running Peerblock? That blocks Steam by default.

Check your firewall?

Open up a cmd window and type tracert store.steampowered.com, maybe?

I have another problem with steam. I can not connect anymore. This morning I was able to login but it dropped the connection ALL the time. Then I tried to change my password, didnt work either and now it says that it doesn't find my account! But I can still try to reset the PW and get emails... WTF is happening?!

Could some of my mates please check if my user is online in the friendslist?

I had similar problem when i enabled the steam protection first time. It wouldnt login anymore, sayd that account does not exist and i could not reset passwords, just gave me errors. I contacted the valve and they reset my information(password, secret question). Took like a day or so.
