So im wondering which "wallet" I should be using?
I have herd people using instawallet.org but i also have this program I got from bitcoin.org thats a wallet but on my desktop.

Hey Dead I know what clearnet site you're coming from ;) . Never use a same clearnet user name on here.
On topic instawallet is great to use as a wallet. I prefer not to use the bitcoin one that installs on your computer as if something happens to your computer your BTC are gone (At least that's what I have read).
At least with instawallet as long as you have that URL to your BTC address you can still have your BTC. If you use instawallet SAVE that URL if you lose it you lose your BTC!
But only use that address 1 time only, whenever you are transferring BTC always change up your BTC address.

Just make sure you don't lose that instawallet URL! Cannot stress that enough.
