My humble introduction 04-26-2013, 02:43 PM

Hey everyone
I am a C# programmer, as well as an aspiring hacker. I'd like to think I'm good at C#, and I'm also working with objective C at work, however I also want to learn about hacking, because we all know you can never know too much about security.
Regardless, so far I have been unsuccessful with my different attempts. I've attempted to crack a WEP wifi on my desktop, from my laptop (desktop with Windows 7, laptop with BT V5 R3), unsuccessful. I have also tried following some tutorials on hacking through Windows 7, again unsuccessful.
Whether that being due to my hardware in my laptop, or my own limited knowledge in the arts of hacking, I do not know, but I am guessing on the later. Which is why I'm writing this introduction, so I can also ask at the same time if someone has some good pointers as where to start exactly.
I have read the thread about white, gray, black hats and the different aspects of hacking, so I'd like to think I'm good to go, in regards to getting started learning.
Like I said, I'm mainly a C# programmer, so I also know (I'd like to believe) a lot about programming languages and how they work. And yes, I realize coding hacking tools is mainly done in C++, and I am also ready to learn that.
But for the time being I am mainly interested in learning about hacking Windows computers, and how that works exactly. And if its not too difficult, cracking Wifi passwords at the same time. But who knows, later on I might also learn some web penetration.
So... Any pointers as to where to start?
Of course if anyone thinks there is a different place I should start, rather than Windows hacking, I'd be very interested in knowing ^^
