Default Spanish courses...

Recently, I've been searched in the Internet for an online, comprehensive and structured Spanish course which would get me from no Spanish, to intermidiate. After searching for a bit, I haven't found anything comprehensive and mostly just remembering set phrases.

Do any exist? Also, I like the Teach Yourself series, is there anywhere I can download Teach Yourself Spanish?

Cool Re: Spanish courses...

just get a spanish-english english-spanish dictionary, a grammar book, and set about 20 words for yourself to learn every day in a notebook(this is the lower end of the scale, the uper end can be up in the hundreds if you really need to learn fast) and just start hanging out with spanish people to figure out how they talk. just practice listening at first, and ask what some sentences with new words mean, and what the new words mean, etc. most people don't mind this kind of thing, they get flattered that you're interested in something they do.
