Check your PMs.

Also, Steam should only need to update itself once before you need to play. Once it finishes updating, you'll only need to download small updates every week or so.

Are you refering to when you start steam, or when you join a server (it has to download a security module every time, anyone know how to stop it?)

some servers dont use the security module. the security module is a small thing that detects the common hacks. many hacks can bypass it thats why valve just made better security.
