This is what will happen to you if you use void main()--check out Salem's picture:

You should never use void main...if not because of salem's god-given right to injure you, then because it isnt even c++, have a read.

why do compilers accept it and why do professors and books teach it?

because it wasn't the standard then i guess.
Under regular function calling/returning in C and C++, if your don't ever want to return anything from a function, you define it's return type as void. For example, a function that takes no arguments, and returns nothing can be prototyped as:
void foo(void);
A common misconception is that the same logic can be applied to main(). Well, it can't, main() is special, you should always follow the standard and define the return type as int.
