this may take about an hour on 56k but it is worth it.

Go to you steam root folder ie: C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam or where ever ur steam folder is and delete the file clientregistry.blob (Steam Must be closed when you do this!)

Once you have done that re open steam and it should come up with the updating bar.. and because your on 56k it might take awhile..

or another couple of options, if you have a frnd with HL2 and a dvd burner get him to burn the following files from the steam\steamapps folder.

Halflife2content.gcf
Half-life engine.gcf
platfrom.gcf

i think that is all the files you need, or your other option is to take ur pc to a frnds who has adsl and download the updatest there..
