Hey everybody!

Happy new year!

Why is it that I can't log on my Steam account?
I can play HL2 fine and whwn I start my computer,
I have no problem connecting to Steam.
It says it connects to my account, displaying my account name.

But when I go to steampowered.com an want to see 'my stuff',
I can't log in. Steam doesn't know my account name nor my password.
Then I thought I got my password wrong, but Steam can't send me
my password because it doesn't recognise my account name.

What gives?
Any ideas?

Regards,
Claus

Yes, you are confusing your Steam login name with the Steampowered
forums. there is no part of the Steampowered site that lets you login
with your SteamID.
