Thanks in Advance.
1. yes Visual C++ is used to make programs like Shareaza, but programs made in vissual C++ are only compatable in windows.

2. Yes Normal C++ can be used to create GUI programs.

3. It Depends on what you are trying to make, If you are trying to make small applications that are not extreamly strong, go with Visual Basic. If you want A program thats windows compatable Only, and is limited to what is realy possable choose Visual C++, or if you want to handle the most powerful language out there and have infinate possablitys Choose C++.

so they are all equal, but in power it goes

Visual Basic < Visual C++ < C++

Edit: you can learn the basics of C++ GUI programming
Here.
