ok this is just BS, me and several of my friends cannot get won authenticated (we all bought our own copies of hl)

thats whats wrong with all this piracy protection sh!t, it just makes the pirates spend 5 extra minutes of their time bypassing it and gives a hassle to us non-pirates :(

You mean for CS? :( I had to give that up.. Another way you might be not authenticated is if you're a known hacker. Valve has taken upon itself to issue warnings if you're caught using hacks on secure servers.. and after that, you're banned from ALL secure servers (which compromises like 99% of CS playing).

i never h4xed...a lot of people are having these problems!

there is no way valve can catch all the h4x0rs even if they had a system that is effective, ogc is always adapting to hlguard/csguard, and vice versa

you cannot win in a hacker war

i hate this piracy protection bs :|
