Describe the bug

When there's an issue with downloading http://cdn.akamai.steamstatic.com/steam/apps/<appid>/header_292x136.jpg pictures then the application behaves inconsistently. Its UI freezes, steam-idle.exe crashes, no real idling occurs.

To Reproduce

  1. Simulate issues with cdn.akamai.steamstatic.com (e. g. block with a firewall or with the hosts file)
  2. Start Idle Master and start idling
  3. Notice that background processes for steam-idle.exe are crashing in ~45 seconds after the start

Expected behavior

Issue with the picture downloading doesn't prevent idling or freeze UI
