...standard C++.
My best code is written with the delete key.
depends on your project I suppose. g++/gcc is great. It is my compiler of choice. However I can certainly recognize the benefit to using Visual C++ for Windows applications. I was on a strict VC++ diet for 2 years of blissful employment.
If you're just getting started and won't be writing windows code, I certainly recommend gcc.

Free the weed!! Class B to class C is not good enough!!
And the FAQ is here :- http://faq.cprogramming.com/cgi-bin/smartfaq.cgi
not to be a pain cause I know Stoned_Coder knows this, but Dev-C is an IDE that uses g++. It's not a separate compiler.

Assuming you're on a Windows system...
Visual C++.NET ($100 and up)
Visual C++ Beta (free)
Dev-C++ Bloodshed (free). It uses the GCC (or GCC related compiler).
Borland comand-line Compiler (free)
I recommend that beginners get a popular compiler, so that they can get help from others using the same compiler. If you are taking a programming class, then you should get the same compiler that the instructor uses or recommends.
GCC/G++. as it's been mentioned before, Dev-C++ uses GCC as it's compiler. actually it uses a MingW port of GCC, because GCC natively belongs on linux. (I think that's what DougDbug may have been trying to get at)
