I noticed... too late.
Anyway, kind of annoying that they manually verify new sign ups for the forum... kind of a bad way to provide support.
Don't seem to be many Vista users (once again) as I've seen only one asking about the same subject, but he's not reporting having problems with it. I want to verify if it's the idea to run Steam in administrator mode (Vista UAC) permanently, because it doesn't seem to work properly otherwise with the beta. That however, seems odd as Steam never needed it before.
ah well, it seems to work properly when launching steam elevated (as administrator), so I'll just do that.... (still a bit weird, though... I think)

*edit* a "problem" is that when adding games to steam they're all run as administrator because of this.... that's fine for the games that already did, the others... depends on where they're saving their progress.... maybe I'll just run every single game as admin then... both steam and xfire would work that way, but that's almost the same as disabling UAC alltogether (sorry XP users for all the Vista talk). ...allthough eh, this one's looking a lot prettier than Xfire.
