So I know this has been posted before and the general solution is usually just to wait it out but it's been several hours. Pretty much I log into steam, put a game in my cart, and then it asks me to re-login. I put in all of my info, the same exact info that I just used to log on, and it says Steam ID invalid. It's very frustrating... I'm trying to get my L4D2 on. Any tips or advice?

Have you tried deleting steamclient.blob while steam is closed? Not to say that it'll work, but it does tend to fix up issues occasionally, plus it'll just be re-created when you start steam again, so there isn't a downside to trying it.

try starting up a game, and see if it logs you in... I've had trouble logging into my account, to get into the "My Community" thing.

Like Broccoli said, it's down for maintenance. That's why I was playing TF2 today, and it wasn't counting my war contributions.
