Enhanced support for Left 4 Dead and Fallout 3 in regards to the in-game overlay have been addressed, along with an issue discovered when using the Overlay whilst playing Sacred 2: Fallen Angel. As usual, the update should apply automatically upon restarting your steam client, or the update can be forced by selecting "Check for Steam Client Updates" within the application itself.
The entire change list is as follows:
* Improved startup time
* Added support for upcoming Left 4 Dead server groups feature
* Improved behavior of Steam if a game it launched crashes
* Updated localization for various languages
* Added error messages for some rare but confusing cases in the install wizard
* Fixed cybercafe's having trouble finding games in Left 4 Dead
* Fixed bug that caused the UI to not pop-up the achievement notification
* Fixed memory leak in the HTML control
* Fixed the in-game overlay to work in Vista when playing Fallout 3
* Fixed losing mouse input to the menu in Sacred 2 after using the game overlay
* Fixed a case where the game overlay could get stuck up while in-game
* Fixed a case where the game overlay could cause a game crash after alt-tab
