Help with a login

Hey guys, I pretty much got a login code and I'm trying to figure out how to make another form popup only if its correct.

This is my code so far.

Code:

Public Class Form1

    Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load

    End Sub

    Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
        If TextBox1.Text = My.Settings.Username And
            TextBox2.Text = My.Settings.Password Then
            MsgBox("Logged In") 'if the first textbox's text is the username and the second textbox's text is the password then display a messagebox that says you're logged in.
        Else
            MsgBox("Incorrect Username or Password") 'if the username and password are incorrect then show a messagebox that says your username or password is incorrect.
        End If
    End Sub

    Private Sub LinkLabel1_LinkClicked(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.LinkLabelLinkClickedEventArgs) Handles LinkLabel1.LinkClicked
        MsgBox("Your password Hint is: " + My.Settings.PasswordHint)
        'displats a messagebox with your password hint
    End Sub

    Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click
        Form2.Show() 'shows the Create Account form so that the user can create an account.
    End Sub
End Class

Anyone know what I should do? I'm trying to add something like, but only if the login is correct:

Code:

Me.Hide()
Form3.show()

Also, can someone help me make a login system that is attached to the website? So it can be leech proof? I'm trying to make somewhat of a Multi Tool that's efficient, but I don't want it leeched.

Well i think you want to create a login form to protect from leechers, why would you let them make an account now? And everything is now stored on the pc it gets runned off

Yeah I know, but I can't get it right for a login for only a certain site.

I am not sure, but I may know a dude that can help

He couldn't help :/ And no one else is replying...So...

Erm, do you mean this? :

Code:

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
        If TextBox1.Text = My.Settings.Username & TextBox2.Text = My.Settings.Password Then
            MsgBox("Logged In")
            Me.Hide()
            Form3.Show()
        Else
            MsgBox("Incorrect Username or Password") 'if the username and password are incorrect then show a messagebox that says your username or password is incorrect.
        End If
    End Sub

        End If
    End Sub

Yes, somewhat like that

EDIT: Nvm fixed the problem

And also, would there be a way to connect it to a forum/website?

Replace the & with And.

EDIT: Oh, you fixed it. Erm, i think you can use SQL databases or something with VB. Not sure how to though, google it.
