Steam link required without ever used Steam

Postby snibetisnab » 03 May 2015, 22:09

Hi,
today when i tried to log in I got a message saying this computer has been used by a steam account, and I'd have to authenticate my account on Steam. I didn't get this on 1st of May.

I have never used Steam or had it installed, and no one else has logged in from this computer so I have no idea why this is happening. I wouldn't want to install Steam to get this working either.

I run FAF on Wine so it is possible (although I really don't think so) there's something wrong on that end causing this... I haven't changed anything since it worked last time. Has something changed server-side or has the lobby been upgraded or something similar?

Is it possible to clear this Steam link? How is a specific computer identified? My FAF username is snibetisnab.

Log, although it doesn't seem to contain anything useful...
