The fix is wait and get some loving patience. IF IT SAYS THE STEAM SERVERS ARE BUSY, THE STEAM SERVERS ARE PROBABLY BUSY.

The thing is though they aren't. I've googled this and its a very common problem. Disabling my antivirus as suggested doesn't work, neither does deleting everything in my steam folder except for steamapps and steam.exe doesn't work. The servers were working just fine until black ops crashed

And I've never gotten any major errors with steam I couldn't fix by restarting Steam or resetting something or other.
