Right so i tryed to dable in c++ a while back but lost my footing at the start and am now trying to regain some skill....

so yes..i started right at the begining..on a fresh install of Xp with SP2.. but ive compiled my program and it just flashes up on screen and disappears when i try to run it....

Code:
 
#include <iostream>

int main()
{
    std::cout << "oldest code ever...!\n";
    return 0;
}
any ideas?
