randomly...shortly after I open the steam client. it starts not responding and then closes itself. the problem is that the process turns invincible so I cant open steam until I reboot. any ideas on how to fix this  minor annoyance would be appreciated.

Uninstall using RevoUninstaller. It will clean out any left over files as well as cleanup registry entries. You may want to move the games out of the directory first though.
