Original HL on XP

[Guest]

Hi!

I tried to reinstall the original HL on my new computer. After upgrading to
1.1.1.0 I tried to play online but I got an error message about my version
of HL not being up to date or corrupted. A search on the internet, by the
program, found no update available. Could it be a problem with my D-Link
firewall ?

Thx to all!

You asked the exact same thing a couple of days ago

Get the newest HL version through Steam
http://www.steampowered.com/index.php?area=getsteamnow

The 1.1.1.0 version authenticated through WON authentication servers
These servers has been shutdown some time ago (nearly a year I think)
A new authentication system has been setup, you need a Steam client in
order to use this system

Work has/is been done to use either nonWON or nonSteam authentication
to play online
This is mostly focused on the CS 1.5 -> CS 1.6 -> CS:S arena
Note! These systems is not supported by Valve

Have you tried exorcising the demons? At all times you leave your computer
unattended, you should surround it with a circle of salt. That'll stop the
pesky blighters.
