Hello, guys. I'm a nit in the web programming , but I have 15 years in C, C++, Pascal, VB and so on, so programming is not a new field for me.
I need to write a simple bot for the web game. The purpose of the bot is to browse some page, click some buttons, read some data, do some searching. The platform is Windows XP.
The question is: what developement language do I choose, where to start (the link to some tutorial will be appreciated), are there some ready-to-use scripts for customing or I will need to do the whole thing from the very beginning?

Thanks in advance,
Michael
