I would not tell which is best.
But I prefer:
1. Visual C++ Express
2. Code Block with MingW

Both are excellent editors with lots of excellent features

You should not be worrying about the IDE until you are a really skilled C++ developer. IDEs make your life a little easier but they are useless if you cannot write decent code.

At first you need to know which OS you are targeting and which language. C++ isnt the only game in town. Java, Objective-C and C# are also important languages.

Microsoft Visual Studio: Download for the Windows world but also Eclipse

Also a look on QT is really useful.

Do not only hope, but learn programming. It is an art of architecting code into useful software. Begin by the basic skills, write "clean code" and learn from your mistakes. ;-)

I can only anwser for Windows programming; I have been using Visual Studio for 15 years and have gotten used to some of the tools, hard to imagine coding without them at this point.

xkcd 378 will tell you exactly which one is the best! Of course, this assumes you're using some Unix-like environment, as everyone should ;-)

Spoiler alert: it's emacs.
