ok did find the forgotting password and I am reading the guide. It involves me logging out my steam account and using the "I know my name but not my password" way of getting back in. I am going read up everything before I do anything else and be double sure!

Can't tell for sure but since CD keys are also used for getting stolen/hacked accounts back, IMO it can't be a bad thing to have them written down.

Don't they normally ask for a pic of the game Cd showing the key?

Good luck Calibur. I'm sure it'll all work out fine in the end but stressing non the less.

If worst comes to worst you can email valve. They will change your password for you, then email you with the new one.
