Right click on the Steam icon in the system tray.
Select games.
Select the My Games tab.
Right click on Half-Life 2: Deathmatch.
Select Properties.
Select the Local files tab.
Select the option "Verify integrity of game cache".
When that process is complete, try to run the game.

might wanna check your firewall and make sure someone didn't accidentally block hl2.exe from the internet.
you might have to manually update steam and the game (s).
worst case you may have to re-install hl2, hl2dm. I've had to do that twice already, sice Feb.

one of my friends had a similar problem with the sygate firewall, he uninstalled it and installed a different firewall
and steam worked correctly again. sometimes firewall block certain things you don't tell it to.

The Security Center and Windows Firewall do not have icons in the Control Panel?  Sounds like you don't have XP SP2 installed, or you've got a really bad virus or spyware program.  Can you run any Steam games?  If so, which ones?

try running CCleaner and Spybot S&D to help solve any problems you might have.  And have you played any Sony music CD's or DVD's with "enhanced content"?  There's been a lot of problems about Sony's new DRM software on their latest cd's and dvd's that MODIFIES rootkits into peoples computers causing serious problems. TWIT, Techphile, and Security Now! have all been talking about the serious problems its causing...

Edit: modify not create :) they're already there

Piece from http://twit.tv/sn12

"The Sony/BMG DRM rootkit was first discovered by F-Secure and widely publicized by Mark Russinovich of Sysinternals in his blog. The Sony DRM hides itself by modifying the Windows kernel, names itself "Plug and Play Device Manager" to confuse users, consumes CPU resources whether running or not with sloppily written code that does things like querying the file size eight times per scan, scanning every two seconds, and, worst of all, allows any hacker to easily hide files on your system.

Sony's license agreement is vague about what it's installing and implies that it can be easily disabled. It cannot. "

http://www.sysinternals.com/Utilities/RootkitRevealer.html that'll help find any modifications that may have been caused by Sony or any other source.

Could have NOTHING to do with whats wrong but hey you never know :)
