Contact valve and ask why you were banned, they might give you a new key if yours has been stolen.

Hey, i was a casual fan of cs. One day i try to log in, and all this new steam stuff is in now. So i finish signing up,etc. And i find my cd is also banned? i could try calling them i guess, but wth? i just forgot about it, because i havn't played cs in years.

If you play it all the time, you could drop $10 on a new copy of HL, download CS and see if that'll work.

Sounds to me like somebody stole your cd key. Same thing happened to a buddy of mine. He called Valve and like ONI said, pay $10 and they will issue a new key. But you need to mail in the old cd key as proof of purchase.

shold i wait till halflife 2 comes out

that will be when? this year?

what i would do is go down to a used game shop and buy the original halflife i always see tons of them for like 5 bucks

The cd key has likely been used and installed in somebody's name on the used games. Remember, you have to give a e-mail address with your cd key to play cs 1.6. If you are in a hurry, I suggest buying a new game from the store.
