Help with Urdu - As salam alaikum!

I have been studying Urdu since April 2004, but due to lack of study resources, I haven\'t really progressed with my studies. I know the alphabets, but I have problems choosing between alphabets like \'seen\' and \'saad\', I believe it\'s because I am a Finn; what is written is how I pronounce it, not like in English for example.
I have few friends online that help me with Urdu, but they aren\'t online that often at the time that I am (because of time zones) and when they are, the time usually goes for asking \"How are you?\" etc.
I visited a book store while I was in UK and I found a book called \"Hindi Urdu Bol Chaal\", but as you can tell from the title, it\'s only conversational.
Is there anyone who is willing to help me? Or if anyone knows any web sites for studying Urdu, more than the alphabets? I will appreacite every little tip of help that you can give. I feel so frustrated with being stuck on this same level of knowledge in Urdu.
