I'm starting to do network programming using C# and the Sybex book:

Is C# a better choice knowing .NET is becoming poplar?
Do you have creative ideas on what kind of network scripts should I write? For example, I'm thinking of writing a program that would track down the total number of bytes sent and received on a PC. Something like this.

First of all, 2002 is very old for a .NET book. You want to make sure any .NET programming books you use are for .NET 2.0 and have been published since 2005. Next, most network programming is done using C/C++ and Java. If you plan on looking for a job as a network programmer you'll find that these are the programming languages most asked for. And finally, if you want to write scripts, you'll need to use a scripting language, such as JavaScript, VBScript, or Perl. C# is not a scripting language.
