Whats a good C++ compiler?

I have been looking for a good C++ compiler without success. Could someone help? (Preferably free)
There is Cingwin but I had problems installing it into the pc something with the firewall and the program maybe. anyway resulted in using MinGW they are all listed on the NetBeasns site. And they are free
visual studio 2008 or 2010, code:blocks,Dev C++, etc

What operating system do you use?

for Linux, i prefer g++ and the command line.. very simple and easy to use,

for windows.. i don't usually program on windows.. but when i did i liked visual studio, easy and pretty simple

hope this helps, cya
I've heard that some people also like the Intel C++ compiler.

For me, though, g++ 4.5 all the way.
