I am willing to learn C++ .
The problem is I only have Windows installed atm.
Does a program which contains autocomplete feature exist?
What program/compiler would you recommend to start out?

The most feature complete (bloated?) free C++ IDE for windows is probably microsoft visual c++ express edition.

Visual C++ express is awesome. I use it all the time. I've never found another IDE that can come close to competing with VC++ Express's Intellisense.

Just keep in mind that if you don't have a lot of programming background, it's not going to be simple no matter what IDE you use.
