VB.Net isn't the easiest version of VB to learn and get started with, but the majority of programming jobs will require this, and for that reason it is the best to advise you spend the time getting to grips with.
The latest version of this is 2008, free to download as RhinoBull has already provided the suggestion for & link to. I'm seconding his suggestion.

If you are going to be doing game development then you may want to look at XNA Game Framework but you will need to download C# Express 2008 and XNA Framework.
