I hope this doesn't cause problems again from Half Life players that have Netham45 on their friend list though O.O (back in the days, they kept coming in #omnimaga to complain at him about hacks and stuff, because he had omnimaga linked in his Steam profile)

Some online gaming messenger service that is required to play certain games like Half Life, Portal, etc (sadly). I wish when playing these games Steam didn't have to start automatically (Although I guess it helps to know when your friends are playing some games.)

I'm pretty sure you can play them without steam. Just go the <steam install dir>\steamapps\common\ find half life and try launching it from there.
Steam is more then just a messenger service. It's a means of getting the games and updates as well.

It's the equivalent of xbox live for the computer.

Hmm I see. I always thought those games were made dependent on Stream. Also I hate how it automatically downloads 800 GB large files of Supreme Commander 2 everytime I start steam anyway.

Steam games are just games packaged to be used with steam, they aren't always dependent on it. There are a few that require it for multiplayer but other than that you don't actually need to have steam running for most of them.
You can disable automatic synchronizations so it doesn't sync your game data to the cloud. I'm not sure if you can disable updates though, but you can always pause the downloads if you don't want them running.

Actually, The Game is this large.

Seriously though I will probably join the group soon.

according to wikipedia it's only 5GB
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supreme_Commander_2
It's probably got a lot of extra content that make it a ton bigger though.
The biggest game I have is 20GB I think. One of the total war games.
We need to find a good game that all of us have so we can all play :)
