The problem is that the two files server.dll and client.dll are corrupt.  I do
not have a workaround, and replacing the files/marking them read only seems to
prevent the game loading at all.  I'm still looking into the issue, but I don't
think Steam is supposed to be changing its executable files on the fly...
