If at first you don't succeed, you're about average.

heres the proper URL: http://www.bloodshed.net/devcpp.html
(I hope the sites still up...if not go to google and just run a search for Bloodshed Dev C++ and try to find an alternative source)

Sams Learn C++ in 24 days was good. Also came with a free version of MSVC++6.0 which is good. But you should NEVER go to Kazaa and search for the enterprise edition of it. You will be able to download the whole thing without paying for it. Which is Illeagle so DON'T go to kazaa and search for Microsoft Visual Studio 6.0. It is wrong, and the FBI will arrest you.

Try Microsoft compiler. Its free!! Yes its free. This is the same compiler that comes with Visual .net package. This is only the command line version. No IDE included. Good way to learn i suppose, rather than jumping to IDE head first.

Just remember to run vcvars32.bat file first in the same command line window before compiling. Then you can compile using prompt:> cl <options> hello.cpp
