Ok before you guys go to each others house with a shotgun, here is the laydown:
Rubez, your questions are very beginner-ish. You need to read and study a whole lot more, and you're kinda making a fool of yourself... but that's OK, there's a first time for everything.
Read up on Subtractive synthesis, it's the most common way of creating sounds, and also the easiest (and it's what Albino, Vanguard and most synths out there build on).
A lead sound: the sound that is LEADing the track, the main sound, the melody, whatever you want to call it. Supersaws are often used for lead sounds in trance. Lead is not a particular type of sound (not a certain waveform or a *frequency* or anything like that).
wikipedia is your friend. Look up these words: synthesizer, synthesis, subtractive synthesis, filter, oscillator, waveform, and anything else you may have questions about. anything not on wiki, you can find on google! really, anything!
The search feature on these forums is really messed up, only finds posts from last 2 months or so. use the search at this forum instead: www.trance.nu - it's a web similar to tranceaddict, but their search feature works  (btw: TA >>> trance.nu any day of the week!!!  )
when people post silly replies to your questions, it's usually because it's a silly question to begin with. Even if people are rude, don't start a flame war, it will just lead to you getting banned and leave you pissed off. Just ignore the replies, google your question, and bitch about how stupid people are in your own time... talking about people behind their backs makes you more popular than if you confront them 
edit: and Oh, forgot: your absolutely number one rule: ALWAYS READ THE MANUAL!!!! and I don't mean skip through it in two minutes, if you really don't know what you're doing you must actually sit down and read every last sentence in that manual, it WILL help! synth manuals are very different from the ones that come with your microwave oven, they actually contain vital information
