    I think the word "child" is used in a computer science context here:

    Probably... but it's a slightly strange error message nonetheless. Complex data structures are usually designed so that the number of nodes doesn't have to be stored anywhere.

    It's more likely to be some kind of menu construct, I think.

    Now what kind of crazy-arse file name is "MultiFieldBlob"? <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    For some odd reason, I no longer can access the games menu. Great.

    "Blob" typically stands for Binary Large OBject, which is to say, just a big chunk of binary data.

    The solution that I have found for this is to abort when the error appears and restart steam, you may have to restart your computer

    Remember steam needs patience.

    Too much patience if you ask me, yesterday I was waiting 5-10 minutes before the login screen appeared. And then couldnt log in anyway!
