What language is the best to use?
This question I see alot on the interwebs... This question you need to ask yourself, such as what you want to do in programming.
C#/VB.NET/Visual C++ are only used on Windows OS
C/C++/Java are used on all OS
Python is used on multiple OS - Shadow
Keep in mind if you are going for C/C++ you need to just read a few books on the language before attempting to code.
What IDE should I use?
This question comes down to user preferance.
C#/VB.NET/Visual C++ you need to use - Microsoft's IDE (Visual Studio)
C/C++ you can use many such as - Code::Blocks, Visual C++ Express (free) ect
Java you can use multiple IDE's - Eclipse, Netbeans ect
Where do I begin to learn code?
Where I started was google and books. I took sometime to figure out what I wanted to make/do in programming and I found the most suitable language for me.
Most people say to start with books, yes you need to. That's where you will learn the most, yeah there are some good tutorials out there on the interwebs, but don't just learn off of them.

or buy pdf/real book or rent books from the public library where you live.
What OS is the best to use when programming?
This comes down to what you want to do with programming.
Disregard the famous quote "Pros use Linux." No, it depends on what you want to do with programming as I said above.
C#/VB.NET/Visual C++ is only Windows
C/C++/Java is all OS
