I haven't really been looking for this kind of guide lately but there
are quite a few out there.
One place with various links is:
http://www.dmoz.org/Computers/Internet/Help_and_Tutorials/
(I'm guessing you have gotten as far as being able to cut and paste
the above address ("URL") into your web browser, but feel free to ask
if not).
