If you are stuck wondering were to start in your programming adventure this is the article for you!
Deciding what your needs are
Many times on forums and in chat rooms I hear the same question over and over. “What programming language should I learn?” but the answer is different for every person. However there are some common questions you can ask yourself to figure out a good starting point.
“What do I want to accomplish?”
First you should start to think about what you want to create when coding. Do you want to make cool websites, and web applications, or maybe a quick windows application to calculate the amount of paint needed for a room? What about creating video, flash, and 3D graphics. There are languages designed to do all this and more! You just need to figure out what your needs and wants are. Do some research on popular languages and find out what types of programs other people have written with them.
! Keep in mind !

Basic Port Scanner in VB6.0
What is a Port Scanner?
- A port scanner is a simple program that scans a computer for open ports. The one we are going to make uses TCP. It uses the three way handshake to look for open ports.
You can compare it to a thief going on his "scout-tour". e goes to a house before he breaks in and checks every door and window to see if anything is open so he can enter later that night without forcing something.
Why would I need one?
-A port scanner can serve many purposes, you can check to see if you are infected with a certain Trojan by checking your computer's open ports for specific Trojan ports. Or it can be used to see if a victim has any vulnerable ports open that can be used to gain further access to the machine.
How can I create one with visual basic 6.0?
- First we need to add the winsock control to our tool box so create a new project and go to the components screen (ctrl+t) then check the box next to Microsoft winsock control 6.0, a... View In Full

Telnet - A Tutorial for Beginners
Networking
|
Telnet
Telnet stands for the Telecommunications Network. It is a network protocol that can be used over wide or local area networks (WAN / LAN). It was developed in 1969 and is now outdated. Deemed an insecure protocol to use, not many telnet servers still exists. Telnet can be run and accessed from just about any platform available (Windows, Linux, Mac, etc). A user could telnet into a server, sign on, and control the entire system remotely with the use of operating system commands such as MS-DOS or Linux Kernel commands.
So lets try to telnet into a system and watch star wars.
First we will have to down load a telnet client. A client is just a piece of software that allows us to use telnet and easily access the features of the telnet protocol.
Go to ( http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html )
And download the client to your desktop.
Then double click on the file to open it.
In the Host Name Box type ( towel.blinkenlights.nl )
