How do you make programs
lol, seriously though you need to learn a programming language, get a compiler, and try some things out.

alittlebitnumb,
I wouldn't say that, now... I can build an entire BSD OS in a relatively short manner of time. Of course, writing the source is another story (okay... dumb, I know...) :)
NewHacker14,
If you're wanting to get into programming, I have to agree with what was said before... You need to find a language that fits "the way you think." I tend to prefer C++ simply because it makes the most sense (to me).
If you do decide to go with C++, let me know and I'll pm you with some suggestions for good books.
Whichever language you choose, gook luck with it (and don't give up on it... er... unless it's straight up BASIC or something... :)).

NEwhacker14- Don't look to build an OS before you learn advanced programming in multiple languages, networks, internet security, the whole nine yards. You can't build an OS if you don't know what a compiler is. Hit the books my friend :)
Oh yeah... Just one more thing to consider...
When you DO create your own operating system, and and it's something to be recognised (making an OS isn't THAT difficult cuz it's done often in school labs)... Do whatever it takes to stay away from the "twin-daemon " format. Doing things right the first time around will save you a LOT of headaches in the long run. :)
Cheers and good luck, man! Mayhaps one day, I'll see you in the papers with an article about how you opened the pasture gates for Mr. Bill. (and even he dared to ask at one point) :)

Check out How to Design Programs http://www.htdp.org/ and Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs http://mitpress.mit.edu/sicp/full-text/book/book.html
They use the Scheme language which is very easy to learn, but powerful enough to create complete applications.
Dr. Scheme is a good scheme package: http://www.cs.rice.edu/CS/PLT/packages/drscheme/
C, C++, and Visual Basic are all poor languages for learning. You will spend your time learning syntax rather than learning to program.

My goal is to make a system better than Windows and waaay more secure
just get yourself a copy of OSbuilder
but make sure its above version 4.2 as if you use an earlier version than that you'll end up with something resembling Windows 3.1
