That DVD should have taught you the basic stretching techniques before it taught u a melody. Check it again. haha.
I can't help you with what sites are good for tabs, but usually good tab sites have great exercises on them. It's hard to find a good tab site nowadays. I know one in Spanish, see if you can follow: http://bis.lacuerda.net/Recursos/cursoguitarra/
that's the lesson, but the site has tabs.
I think the best thing for beginners is to play in Drop D tuning...that way on the top 3 strings you can make a power chord with one finger covering up all three strings on one fret, which is a lot easier for beginners than making a chord with two fingers stretched two frets apart. Once you tune it to Drop D you can play sh1t like Pantera, Deftones, Soundgarden, etc.

I'm learning as well right now, but I taught myself to read notes and all that **** as well. I found a bunch of my sister's old sheet music that I've been learning on the keyboard and my mates transcribed a few for the guitar.
it depends on what you are trying to play.if youre playing classical pieces than by all means go with the fingers but if youre doing distorted/rock music than use a pick.
if youre just starting out i would advice learning songs that you like so that you dont lose interest.i remember when i first started i was playing the stuff in the books and i got real bored and put the guitar down for a couple of months.
let me know if you want that guitar pro.i can up it for you.
