Hey, this mod works perfectly for me except for one minor problem.
On every other time I update the servers(update, not refreash) it will update *all* won servers, which takes a good 30-40 mins on Cable. This is quite needless to say the least. Other times(usually after I have done this) updating takes very little time and will state the approx. amount of NS servers to update like normal, then the next time it will update upwards to 30,000 servers... and well let's just say that it's a safe bet that NS isn't that popular.
Anyways, this never happened with any other Mod till I downloaded NS(not to say it is NS's fault, but it does seem like that since I haven't done anything else to HL, but everything is possible).
Here is the normal start up of HL when attempting to go into a multiplayer game:
Click on the multiplayer button [normal]
Click on internet games
-->Logging into VALVe hangs
if it hangs here, err... takes longer then 3 secs to log in it will update the full server list, no matter the filters
--> Logging into VALVe is normal
then it will update the usual 300 servers of NS from WON with my filters set to(ns, are responding, not empty..etc..)
Any help would be appreciated <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

This is your problem. If your computer does this, just quit Half-Life/Counter-Strike Retail and start it up again. That should fix it. If it doesn't try it again and again.
