Is there any possible way I can get HL2 without steam?

I have a 33.6 k modem so id have 2 leave my computer on for at least 1 day to install it.

Nope. You MUST have Steam to install HL2. Lol, there's no way around it, believe me, I've tried... You'd just have to leave your computer running all day if you're on dial-up.

Ahhh...cHilli, I already know the problem (I think), and I could fix it right now. Though, if I do that, my internet will be killed in the process...I don't know why, but it's happened before, and it'll happen again...

A spyware problem, according to Steam's support FAQ thing...

http://steampowered.custhelp.com/cgi...i=&p_topview=1

It certainly isn't my firewall, as I get the same error message even when I've completly shut it down. I already know there's a ton of crap on my computer, but it doesn't bother me because my firewall stops it from doing anything. My dad said it's embedded itself into a critical internet component or something, so if we get rid of the crap, we get rid of what we need as well...

Basically - I'm screwed.

Steam is a very small file. Only takes a couple of minutes to download on 33.3K...
