I am interested in becoming a bot-maker. I've searched on the bot developtment sites, and I've found lots of useful information once connected to Battle.net, but I can't find how to intially connect... Can someone please tell me how?
Oh yeah, I'm going to use VB.
Well, I suggest reading into using Window's Sockets. You should look into Win32 Winsock API.
However, Visual Basic comes with something called mswinsck.ocx. It basically makes using winsock a breeze. You should look into this too.

BnetDocs (http://www.valhallalegends.com/arta/bnetdocs/) has all the information aboout Battle.net that you'll need to get started.
