+ <p>Because Steam opens GCF files in read/write mode and is liable to change the contents of

+ <p>The purpose of the GCF file is to make it easy for Steam to update Valve's software. When a
+ new version of a program (say CS) is released, all Steam has to do is look in the CS GCF
+ file and compare versions (hashes) of each file to determine if each file needs to be added,
+ updated or removed. Because of this, if you were to modify a file, Steam would interpret
+ this as meaning that the file is out of date and redownload the correct version of the file.
+ </p>
+ <p>Steam does, however, provide an interface to add or overwrite a file. To add or overwrite a
+ file simply place it in the corresponding directory in the Steam\SteamApps\[EMail]\[GCF
+ File] directory on your hard drive. You might have to create the appropriate subdirectories.
