Steam...sigh

Ok for some uknown reason im able to ping servers at around 20ms, however, once i connect, it takes about 30 secs to download the security module and i get 100 choke...Windows firewall is disabled, and i have no other firewalls running.
 
all of the normal ip commands (ipconfig /all, tracert, etc) are not recognized
Results from PCPitstop.com
When trying to ping...tracerout also doesnt work from said site
Download speed: 2382 kilobits per second
Upload Bandwidth Test Results
NOTE: We were not able to test upload bandwidth. (0) This is often due to a hardware or software firewall blocking the FTP protocol that the test uses. |

Things i have done
foraward correct ports for steam
uninstall steam
winsock IPfix
scan for spyware

hrmmm....it doesn't sound like steam issue as much as a windows issue. Did you try just a normal virus sweep? did you try rebooting in safe mode? F8 i think for XP...
Doesn't sound good though...

Nope...cant ping any of the sites shown in that picture (shown here). Windows also doesnt recognize 'ping' as a 'valid internal or external command.' I can browse websites at normal speeds though (obviously).
Im thinking of reinstalling TCP/IP (duh)
/update
I was able to get to ipconfig...i had to change the dir in the cmd prompt to C:\windows\system32. I pinged yahoo, here are the results (along with ipconfig /all
I didnt blur things because i dont trust you guys

Your download speed : 3955106 bps, or 3862 kbps.
A 482.8 KB/sec transfer rate.
Your upload speed : 367489 bps, or 358 kbps.

Steam still laggyyy...even if i ping servers from windows i get 0 loss, yet if i were to join that server, it would take 50 secs to dl the security module and i would have 100 loss on the server.

Actually this sounds like CS connections settings to me. If you're not noticing any lag or slowdowns when you download things off the net or surf the web, then obviously it must be something inside CS. The server browser is independent of the connection settings the actual game uses, so it's not surprising that it isn't effected. Try setting your rates back to something reasonably conservative:
rate 8000
cl_rate 8000
cl_cmdrate 30
cl_updaterate 50 |
|
See if that has any effect.

It sounds more like his PATH environment variable (yes, Windows has this too) is screwy, and wasn't searching /Windows/System32 for applications by default. That kind of thing I *would* write off under the "Windows Sucks" category. It's also entirely possible for the Windows TCP stack to corrupt itself (you've seen it yourself numerous times, and is what necessitates the WinSockXP fix), but if that were the case, websites and other net programs would behave erratically as well. This only happened once CS was up and running.
