I´ve been having serious problems with steam lately. Mainly I have 4 games which I am not able to run anymore and that is purely because of steam. These games serial-number don´t work anymore. half life 2,half life 2 episode one,sin episodes emergence and counter strike source.
So what i wan´t to know is can i uninstall Dark Messiah and installing it again without steam complaining when i type my serial number.

The serial key is one time only and can not be re-used. You made an account and added the games to it. The only way you will be able to play them again is if you login to that very same account.

ok thanx, i think i have to go to the store and buy these 4 games again. Because I don´t remember my account password anymore. Now that I understand how steam works I feel that it kind of sucks, because the games don´t work unless I log in to the right account when I start that games. Also if steam for some reason banns my account I can´t play the games.

Then make sure you don't use hacks and steam will never ban your account. The concept of Steam is fairly simple...

I suggest you Contact Steam Support for help on recovering your lost account.

Im still worrying about accidently getting a cheat
in counter strike source and day of defeat source
(btw I bought these games again because I forgot
my password and account name), because when I click on the server it sometimes starts to download stuff before the map start.

Downloading files from servers in Steam is perfectly safe, and if your account gets banned, you will still be able to play Singleplayer in every game you've bought. Or you could play on unsecure servers..
