I'm a 13 year old kid and i want to learn about computer/game programming, i want to know if there is any free online courses or downloadable programs. Keep in mind that i have dial up and any downloads cant take to long. Oh, the programming stuff must be up to date and used the most.

if you don't know ANY programming, you might want to try getting your hands on a copy of visual basic and starting there.
when programming you can drag buttons, menus, list boxes and so on onto a windows style form, then add code which will be executed when each item is clicked.
plus with visual basic, you can simply type an items name and be presented with a whole list of properties that can be used with that object. it is somewhat basic, but you can create *.exe files and do some very real programming with it.
if you find you understand visual basic easily you can then progress onto something like ideally c++ which is the most used programming language, since it can be used cross-platform.

Dial-up isnt for programmers that need to download the resources.. if you have a programming program like Visual C# or Visual Basic 6.0 or .Net then u can get sample codes and tutorials from www.planet-source-code.com, other stuff isnt legal to download and would take u days

You'll need a compiler. If you can't get your hands on a Visual Basic compiler (which is not free when taken from legal methods), get a C or C++ compiler (a lot of which is free).
The best was created by Borland's and its at http://www.cprogramming.com/borland.html. You will need to register.
Here is the tutorial that starts from basic to the advanced stuff you need to program your game. http://www.cplusplus.com/doc/tutorial/
Also check out my sources as they WILL be a lot of help.
