Then I installed Steam from their website. I started to get this note:

I uninstalled Steam, deleted the entry form HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE. Reinstalled Steam again. Now with the inserting the disc1, I get "select language" dialogue box and, after the selection, it's just freezes.
I didn't get a chance to play the game, yet I already resent it.
Any ideas?

Thanks, mate. I'll try this today after work. My family and neighbours had to listen to me cursing for a long time and very loud.

Ok, they say it is because steam is being blocked by a firewall and can't download the files it needs. Please check out this thread, The last couple page of it is fairly recent, and some people there managed in getting it fixed.
