Right click on your icon or whatever you use to open steam, hit "Properties" then check where the target is pointing. Track down that folder in Windows Explorer and see if steam.exe is actually there. Or even the folder.

I've moved files around accidentally, you may have done that.

If you loaded it from a cd (HL2) you might be able to copy steam.exe off the install disc (don't have mine handy otherwise I'd check).

If you DL'd from steam, follow these instructions to install a new version.
