Now that I've installed steam cs 1.6, will it be ok to uninstall 1.5
to free up heaps of space? There are no prospects for me to play 1.5
again.

thanx

Yes but just delete the folder don't use the uninstaller as it will
remove some registry entries that steam now uses

Steam should have put itself in \program files\valve\steam\ so
anything else can be deleted if you have a C:\sierra\ then that can
all go as long as you installed steam in it's default place

That toys/cake bloke is one of the most helpful people who post.
I've picked up plenty of tips from him.
Valve should give him a job!
