most of my programs are not there cause there is no point making it cluttered with apps i rarely use... the wallpaper is ok... i like it. its self preference on this one. and it changes every 5 mins.

ok good... i will Give you some files to install... plus you have to make sure that you have .net 3.0 amd .net 3.5 running or installed in your windows... or you can enable it using turn windows features on and off from control panel.... to do this hit the start button then type this "turn windows features on and off" hit enter and enable .net 3.5 if you like you enable 4.0 also.

So, which language are we talking about? Java, PHP, C+, C# etc

Better still, what spurred you to wanna learn programming, let me know which language will be best for you.

What spurred me is that without knowing how to program, people already think im a programmer! ( a lil extent though!). This made some people call me antivirus, algorithm, guru, etc @ my work place.
That made me feel like writing a program for office solutions e.g. receipts generating softwares (e.g. The one u access through browsers), mobile softwares thet connects and synchronises with a database(cross platform + web based) and some games like call of duty..... And the most ultimate, OS!

I tried laying my hands on Java, but the book deitelJava How to programe (above 1000pages) seems too ambiguous. Also, i tried Visual Basic cos it seems cool(you can easily design the windows by urself), but i have not the codes for the controls. I also heard it uses a lot of memory(it is in use @ present at my workplace, and its sometimes lagging).

Not bad... But you can go hard core too... The wall paper is too dark.. I guess that's how you like it. I will show my desktop later although I rarely keep it like that.
