Valve has released a mandatory update for several games including Team Fortress 2. The notes for the update are below. As usual, we are updating the servers and they should be back up in just a few minutes so you can once again join them and play without the software version error you smay be seeing when the server is out of synch with the Steam servers.

Enjoy the update...
