Just started, but a question....

Ok so in the tutorial it says to use Microsoft Visual C++ .NET 2003 v7.1.. However not everyone is rich enough to afford the latest and greatest.
I do however already own Microsoft Visual Studio 6 (Which I thought would be enough..) is there a re-write of the tutorial for VS 6? Or.. do I have to be a pirate?

It's under $100 for a student version, hell half the student stores won't even ask for your damn ID just walk in there and buy it! As far as VS 6 did you even look at the first page of threads on this board ? There are two threads I found in seconds with mention of VC++ 6, one with it in the title:

To be honest any beginners tutorial should be written for C++, not a specific IDE/compiler.

I suggest trying VS 6 before you spend any money.

When you come to using the SDK it may be more difficult to get up and running, but there are a few threads/tutorials for that as well.
