I think the update was actually released on the 3rd but I didn't get it until today.

- Added wish lists to the store!
- Fixed crash checking out with PayPal
- Fixed showing 'last played: tomorrow' for some games
- Fixed uninstalled games showing up in downloads page
- Removed details/news button for media downloads
- Downloads page now falls back to full game art assets for free demos
- Fixed details page trying to request background images for mods/non-steam games
- Fixed emote text in chats (/me) to always match the users state color
- Fixed crash in html control if you got a resource loading callback just after a window was closed
- Fixed a crash in the game overlay when dealing with lots of friends
- Reverting chat dialogs' names to begin with the names of those you're chatting with, for ease of window identification in the system tray
- Changed list panel gradient to be more subtle and improve legibility in chat, and elsewhere
- Fixed case where the users configuration file could get corrupted if friends have some special characters in their name
- Fixed case on windows 7 where text in chats could jitter when selected
- Adding new hover treatment to friends list
- Added hover and selected states for installed, installing and uninstalled games
- Steamworks : Fixed joining clan/ogg lobbies using ISteamFriends::ActivateGameOverlayToUser( "chat" )
- Fixed 'recover my account name / password' dialog having wierdness with the radio buttons
- Fixed playing older media videos using GCF depots
- Increased hit area of VIEW FRIENDS link to be the whole region left of the users avatar
- Improved appearance of text on Windows 7 with ClearType off
- Reworked chat dialog layout to be more compact
- Fixed case where group chat panels could have cut-off text
- Updated the Steam icon
- Fixed game overlay to remember whether or not the Friends panel was open or closed, and have it in the same state the next time you run a game. Defaults to "open".
- Reduced main window header and footer height, as well friends list footer height
- Reduced size of main window primary and secondary navigation text
- Creating windows shortcuts now creates shortcut links of the form 'steam://rungameid/#' instead of steam.exe – fixes windows 7 changing the Steam icon in the tray to be the game icon
Looks like they are actually listening to users. 8O

Was on the 5th March...

When you have a chat window open look at what the title of it is. If it is Chat - <<name>> then you don't have the update, if it is the persons name then you do have it.

They have now changed it so it is how it use to be. With favourites at the top, then installed games, then uninstalled games. :). So now i dont have anything about it i dont like. Except i was trying to click on one of the deals last week and it kept taking me to another deal :s. I think i was trying to click on the just cause deal but everytime i clicked it, it kept taking me to the tomb raider deal. So i gave up in the end.
I'm back :)

I had the same thing with a deal the other day, I was trying to look at the final fantasy XIV (the mmorpg?) but it kept taking me to Batman. Other times I click on the offers that open in the update news window and it just says cannot connect to server. I was meant to fill out some feedback but forgot..
