Hi, I just finished "Learn C++ in 21 Days" and found it very helpful. I want to continue learning C++ but not sure where to go. I downloaded a bunch of sample code to try and learn from other people but I don't know if it is just me but I find it incredibly hard. I mostly want to take my C++ programming in teh direction of networking. I do not wan't to make games or anything like that. I want to eventually get a career in networking and I seem to have hit a wall where learning programming will help. Does anyone have any suggestions for reading material? Should I continue trying to learn of others code? Thank you in advance.

I'd read up on exactly how TCP/IP works, and then get into programming raw sockets (search google).

If you want to expand your knowledge of C++, try Dietel's How To Program C++. Very cool book that runs the gamit from simple understanding to linked-list implementations with recusion problem solving.
Its also cool because the majority of the projects are games.
