I get the above error when I launch Half-life 2 death match or cs source. just installed.

I turned off comodo pro (firewall)
I turned off windows firewall
I opened ports 27000 27020 UDP
27020 27050 TCP
1200 UDP

same error: cannot connect to get master server list when I click on find servers.

Well, looks like you already tried all the solutions I could find googling or think of. I could have sworn it's due to the firewall. I found a solution here (scroll down to the 4th post):

Cannot connect to master game server

I'm not too sure it'll work, but you might want to give it a shot.
