I would say C++ ^^

Since it's a very "near machine" language and it has a lot of possibilities. Also i find it easy to learn =]

Well yeah it's multiplatform of course, but it has to be built in different ways to work on the different Operating systems, different libraries and such. I am not that good yet to provide you with much information about how it would work, but i do know it's a little different on different systems =)

I use "Visual C++" on Windows, and gcc on Linux although i haven't started to program on Linux yet ^^, also it was a while ago since i did anything on Windows either due to a break i am having atm ^^

hmm okay thanx a lot =)
whatz with java? i heard is multiplatform on the same way, is that true?i heard java need more system resources, but its more feature save..is that true?
xD sorry for that much question, but since i begin with vb( only for coding my badware xD) i really want to learn more for making good, and needed programms...

Yeah Java is multiplatform, i don't know much details about the language though since i haven't read it ^^

If you learn C++ there are no limits to your good or badware

yeah, C++ is a good choice!
I can also recommend Perl, its focal point is different from C++...while the C++ focus is on stand-alone applications the Perl one is networking and web applications. Perl is rooted in C and Unix commands, so it is also very interesting to learn..

Don't forget PHP!!!

PHP is also like perl, a networking and web-based programming language. You've seen some of the stuff i've made, such as a spreadsheet program and an IRC bot, etc. I'd say review your options and make a decision that fits you best.

hmm yeah thats a good point gogeta,i really wana make learn more about web- based programming languages, but my first way should be a strong stand alone programming language xD

You should try Python...It is a powerful programming language.And believe me you can do a lot with Python.Although i left Python programming for a while and i'm beginning HTML and PHP...
