Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
In my mind, win32 gui programming is dead. Maybe try MFC(which can be just as awful as win32) or C#. Might as well download C# Express and give that a shot. In my mind, it is the future(with the whole .NET framework) of Windows programming. There will probably be a lot more current tutorials...
