To provide some more information:

- there are no error messages - I can provide any necessary traces if 
you can hint at where the problem might be.
- I can see text during the initial connect screen up to the point 
where  the new "skinned" Steam screen appears. I see no text on the 
new-look dialog boxes.
- I will try installing tahoma.ttf from a friend's machine, but my point 
above was that I've had Steam working without any extra 
dlls/fonts/non-wine components, other than the Transgaming version of 
the ActiveX control, and the text has only been missing recently.

Any help is appreciated..
