Netbeans is probably most popular, but i like jcreator. Its very user friendly.;)

JCreator is fast but kinda useless. It doesn't do very much.

I love netbeans! I couldn't live without it.

Some of my favorite web sites (take your pick if you choose):

The best IDE is Eclipse. It is free. You can also get commercial one My Eclipse with my project template.

using both netbeans and eclipse(sorry havnt used jcreator)...i would say try both they are both free and are both awesome. currently i have found myself using eclipse more than netbeans. but i come across a lot of open source projects online that use netbeans.
