Perhaps you would want to consider learning to use C++ in the most effective way along with learning C++. Rather than join a whole generation of programmers who started to learn the most …

There are so many C++ book out there, countless!!!
Look in amazon for good ones, those that have high ranking and large number of readers.
I had a glance at this book, seemed good for a beginner.
Most famous online references for C++ that I know:

Perhaps you would want to consider learning to use C++ in the most effective way along with learning C++. Rather than join a whole generation of programmers who started to learn the most primitive level at which one can use C++, and then continued to program for ever at that level, I would suggest a 'top-down' approach where you learn the language, the library and learn by using these to solve programming problems.
I don't know of a web resource that teaches C++ this way; perhaps you could invest in buying one first C++ book and then look at the web for additional resources. Koenig and Moo's "Accelerated C++ - Practical Programming by Example" http://www.acceleratedcpp.com/ is a good first introduction to C++.
A good book (freely available on the web) that teaches C++ in the traditional way - starting at low-level C-like aspects and then moving on to higher abstractions - is Eckel's "Thinking in C++" http://www.mindview.net/Books/TICPP/ThinkingInCPP2e.html
Some other resources you may find useful:
"C++ Annotations" from University of Groningen http://www.icce.rug.nl/documents/cplusplus/
Informit's C++ Reference Guide http://www.informit.com/guides/content.aspx?g=cplusplus
Tutorials etc at cplusplus.com http://www.cplusplus.com/
A couple of newsgroups where people learning C++ can ask questions or seek clarifications on doubts and expect to get good answers:
alt.comp.lang.learn.c-c++ http://groups.google.com/group/alt.comp.lang.learn.c-c++/about
comp.lang.c++ http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.c++/about
