Hi! I've got a big problem: when I start playing guitar everithing is allright, but a few minutes later my fingers get sticky and their movement acros the fretboard becomes more difficult. my sweat is corrosive and the strings of my guitar get rusty in only a few sessions.
Does anybody have the same problem and/or know any solution?
Thanks!

Try taping your fingertips, it worked for me.

If you don't allready, wash your hands before you play, and wipe the strings down when you're done playing. If the neck of the guitar gums up, then it's probably not your hands, but the guitar's finish.

Wipe a small amount of Dr Ducks Ax Wax and String Lube over your strings and fretboard, this will speed your playing and should protect your strings, it's good for your fretboard too, just remember to apply it sparingly.
