Hey, welcome!
If you''re not looking to spend any money I''d head over to <a href="http://www.bloodshed.net">Bloodshed</a> and download Dev-C++ which is a nice IDE that comes with a nice C++ compiler (for free).
Next, if you''re familiar enough with C++ then go to <a href="http://www.winprog.org">Winprog</a> and read the tutorial there. That should be enough to get you started.
