Hey, I just started out with C++, I've found some nice books to read online, the problem is they all teach you to program in a console application, not windows so it always opens up command prompt. So my question is do we move onto windows application after we've learnt programming in console? I don't have any knowledge in any other language and what I want to really do is program my own keylogger with a few options( like capturing screenshots, websites visited) etc. All the books I downloaded are very similar so what I want to know is was anyone of you able to program a Remote Administration Tool, virus keylogger after reading a C++ book like Teach yourself C++ in 2* days. Or do you then have to learn programming in windows from the start and learn that, and then networking, and so on on??? I'm not in hurry and I dont mind spending around 5-6 months learning stuff non-stop, about 2 hours a day, but I don't want to be in the end disappointed because I didn't learn enough, so I just need some help on how to start etc. I know I can download some keylogger, but I also just wanna learn to program, and possibly make some other basic programs. I'd really appreciate it if anyone can help here. Some might be stupid questions I know, but I'm just confused because I'm starting out, but I think once I know the answers to some of these questions and learn some basic programming, it will be easier to get things so omg i need some help. Thank you
