I'm looking for a C/C++ library to get pages over http and https (possibly version 1.0 only), with the smallest number of dependencies (e.g. not libcurl), available on the major OSes (Windows, Linux, OSX). Is there such thing?
This depends a lot on your requirements. If you just need HTTP/1.0 support, without any consideration for proxies, keepalives, and all the stuff that's in HTTP/1.1 and make HTTP difficult, you can write an HTTP client in about 30 lines of C code. Add another 50 lines to include libssl for HTTPS. So unless you specify your requirements a bit better we can't help you.
(Besides, questions about finding a tool or library are considered off-topic here).

I'm looking to find a C/C++ library that gives me system stats like CPU usage and memory usage.
Is there one that works cross platform?
I just don't want to have to re-invent the wheel (badly).
You could use
SIGAR API (C++)
This is an open source library that does basically what your looking for,
but unfortunally there is no platform independent function for this.
If you want one for cross-platforms, ACE has a good one that works for a lot of languages! Note that ACE abstracts the OS in general, and might be heavyweight for what you want.

I'm looking for a library to add a socks proxy option to a C/C++ program.
What libraries are available for unix and what is the best way to achieve this?
The solution should:
be considered best practice (safe)
work in multi-threaded programs with short single-threaded connections
easy to implement / maintain (if possible)
work for unix (linux/debian/ubuntu)
Found a lot of information on the internet but nothing specific, and don't know what to use or when to use it.
I do recommend:
libboost: http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_35_0/doc/html/boost_asio/reference/ip__tcp/socket.html
Qt: http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5.0/qtnetwork/examples-network.html
Both are multiplatform and very good libraries, but Qt is for GUIs more than a simple library, so think about using libboost for this single purpose.

I want to build a transfer protocol on top of TCP to send a certain type of file between two computers. I was wondering if there were any Resources, open source projects or books that I could look at to get an idea of what I should be doing.
A good place to start would be the W3C HTTP/1.1 standard or the HTTP/1.0 standard if you want to implement something simple. You probably only need to implement the GET verb if you just wan't simple I/O. You could also look at implementing JSON as a data interchange format. If you're looking for information on how to implement a TCP/IP server too, then there are several books on the subject.

maybe someone knows a good crossplatform particle library?
I know Pyro particle library, but it's not crossplaftorm and free. There is also Magic Particles (Probably, the best version I need) but there is only theoretical possibility to make a port on Linux.
I'm not sure how good it is, but I remember seeing a post on www.gamedev.net on a open source particle engine written in C++. It appears to be graphics-library agnostic, so you should be able to easily port it to whatever platform you are interested in.
Here's a link:

I'm looking for a RTP/RTSP library in C++. I found pjsip but it is more C-style. I'm looking for more OO library.
Check live555 Useful libraries and code examples of how to stream stuff from your own app. The repo is full of RTP, RTSP, and SIP code examples and libraries.
JRTPLIB is very nice, and used in well-known projects such as SightSpeed (and lots of little ones). Pretty well-designed, very flexible license; pretty easy to get things right with it.
