thanks 
An update to the steam 3.0 beta has been released...
This update fixes...
* "Pre-loading..." progress bar, when installing a released game... actually fills now.
* Internet games tab in serverbrowser is slow with more than 1000 servers in the list.
* Add a scrollbar in backup wizard when backing up more games than can fit on one page
* Sometimes clickable menu items always appearing checked
* Every item in "Update" column turned into "box" symbol. No "news". Unable to recreate. Possibly related to turning colum displays on and off.
* Some third party mods read "Third-party" as the developer and have no link, others read "[ Third-Party ]" and have a link to www.steampowered.com from them.
** It's HL1 engine mods which have the link listed.
* Some machines show squares when drawing empty columns
* 'purchasing...' progress dialog doesn't have much room on the bottom
* no progress moving when installing games( 'creating cache files' )
* UI style of scrollbar in Backup games is inconsistent with other scrollbars. Scrollable area also is in a squared rather than rounded corner rectangle and missing the drop shadow look of Games list (for example). [Duplicate]
* If you right click on a third party mod in "My games" and select "Backup game files..." you'll find there are no 3d party mods listed
** Fixed by removing unsupported 'backup game files...' context menu option from 3rd party mods
* The context menus for games on the My Games tab display a line even if there's no items below it (see ''Rag Doll Kung Fu'' on an account where it's preloaded but not preordered).
* If you have an out of date video card driver and try to connect to a server via the serverbrowser the command line is incorrect
* Pause update from context menu, then launch game, context menu then says "Pause update" rather than "Resume update"
* Loading any sort of game (HL1/2, HL1/2 mods (both valve made and 3rd party), then exiting and then attempt to load a 3rd party mod will result in loading HL2 sp - Steam "thinks" that all mods are HL2 single player (i.e allows you options that are available only to valve games). To be able to play 3rd party mods again you have to exit Steam and run it again.
* The Day of Defeat: Source icon (white circle/white star) is outdated. Update to the newer icon.
* Download speed is written as Kb/s, whereas it looks more like KB/s.
* All HL1-engine third-party mods are missing the last character from their name; Source Engine mods are not affected
* Third party games may be listed as "Half-Life 2" on shrunken games window. [http://www.maxdamage.org/img/Thirdpartybug.jpg]
* Pre-order now button on preload dialog should minimize the preload dialog, currently hides store
* Support button changes to minigameslist, after going to mini-games list once
