steam regressed?

[Dan Kegel]

Hmm.  I can't start steam anymore.  This worked until quite recently...?

What does running `git bisect` give as the faulty commit?

There has been a major Steam update in the last few days but no
regression between 1.1.40-41 that I can see.  The Classic client and
Beta UI both function correctly for me.

Uhh... You're not done yet.

I would've thought you knew that! Apparently not.

Extra information is that the crash is caused by IE6 attempting to
load Flash content.

Vanilla Steam installs aren't effected so use the new winetricks steam verb.

Workaround is to remove Flash:

Still works for me. A proper bug report with a backtrace & log would
help, of course.
