Steam Authorization failed????

MERRY CRISSY EVERYONE.

Just wondering if someone could point me in the right direction. I'm unable to play DCS due to the following message, overlaid onto the DCS start up page.

"The following DLC's are not authorized and will be disabled:

It then goes on and list about 50 modules, from Animals pack, Combined Arms, Persian Gulf etc,  just to name a few. Thing is, I don't even own these modules, never have. I'm at a loss, can't get around this message. I've tried verifying the game files, no luck. Anyone got any ideas? 

Thank you for taking the time to read,

Have a very merry crissy everyone.

Baz.

Hi Baz,

 

Check you are in online mode in steam, and check your connection is not being blocked by antivirus or firewall. 

 

If you continue to have issues.

Hi BIGNEWY,

Thank you for the response, I checked those things and everything seams to be ok. Just a bit strange, it was going perfectly this morning, then this arvo, caput... Anyhow, I'll contact tech support and get a ticket going.

Thank you for your help and have a safe and very merry Crissy mate.

Baz.

HI BIGNEWY,

 just to give you an update (and to help anyone else out), after chatting to tech support, the problem was my anti virus. After I put ED into the 

'white list" (authorized sites), problem went away. 

Thank you again for the help.

Baz.
