Where can I learn Arabic online?

I would love to learn it. Is there any place online that doesn’t cost hundreds of dollars or in this case (any $$) that has vocals, pronunciation and the Arabic word? I’m learning out of a book but i’m not sure if I’m saying it correctly.
Actually there are some websites teaching Arabic for free with pronunciation:
http://www.arabicpod101.com/
I am not learning Arabic in this website but I do learn other languages, and this series is very useful, they offer podcast where you can listen all the time
http://www.livemocha.com/
Also this website offer many languages, and it is for free, I did not start really with them, I have just registered, but many people recommended to me
http://www.transparent.com/languagepages/arabic/arabic.htm
This one is not totally free, but they have some free lessons, and they have something I really like which is (the word of the day) where you recieve a word with its pronunciation in your email every day
Last thing I want to say is that Arabic is devided into (formal) and (informal) language
My recommendation is to start with the formal one and then when you master it try to listen to different dialects (each Arab country has its own) and then choose which one you like more or find the easiest.
These websites that I gave you is mainly for formal Arabic. for informal one try to listen to Arabic dialects on youtube for example or find friends online
I hope that helps
It’s way better if you learn it with a tutor or just with a native speaker.
